Started casting last week, thought why not powder coat the bullets. Looks easy enough, called Smoke got some powder on Saturday so recast the bullets for the AK test. First attempt only yielded about 10 decent bullets, so remelted and recast. This was second attempt and why not go for gold, this was recovered range scrap. Pot was at 760f so kept remelting bullets and raising molt temp. Presto, 98% success rate. Since I had the powder coat. After dinner powder coated my bullets in my new to me $8 oven.
Then it happen again. What else could I powder coat. Just finished making a handle for my new to me used Hornady Pro-jector press. Let's give it a try. Didn't go as well as the bullets, but gave me ideas. Dam this is all so much fun and addicting.
