    Who the heck has an air-conditioned reloading room with proper ventilation to cast in a heat wave ?
    I HATE auto-correct

    Happiness is a Warm GUN & more ammo to shoot in it.

    My Experience and My Opinion, are just that, Mine.

    LAH,
    I can't hate you.
    But it just ain't fair. It's 85degrees and humid and we're only 3 miles from the beach, can't wait for sundown.

    A few weeks ago I fired up a new waage pot and ladle case these NOE. 45 HP bullets. The individual bullets are scraped up because they hit the ground. They went into the reject pile

    Yesterday morning I coated those HP bullets and about 1,000 I made from an Arsenal .45 mold. I traded these bullets nd a few more for the lead ingots in another thread.

    I had one of my OLD buddies come over today, to help replace the lift strap in the hoist for my scooter. Outside in the nice bright sunshine. Half hour job, drank 2 glasses of ice tea each & went out to air conditioned Diner. 90degresses at 1100hrs. Pretty hard on two old farts. Nothing like a Chocolate Malted to cool ya off.
    He left with 500 ACCURATE .45's I cast on last monday. Lubed them last night on the patio while the sprinklers were on.

    Cast 175 Lyman 266469's. Vintage mold, black and orange box with the metal corners. I am the first to use this new old stock mold. Single cavity takes awhile to cast up a pile.

    These are for a 6.5x54 M/S.

    I got so tired of being run out of outdoors due to it raining all the time and the humidity so I moved it indoors to the stove top, it's soooo nice casting in the A/C that I doubt if I will ever do it outside again.

    I cast a bunch of Lee ingots of stick on WWs. Smelted them into ingots and got about 30lbs out of the deal. I am gonna cast 1oz. slugs and buckshot out of them. They are sooofffttt. No AC however. The sweat was rolling in the workshop.
    You can miss fast & you can miss a lot, but only hits count.

    It was rainy outside when I got up this morning so I put the Magma under the porch beside a fan and broke out the H&G .38 SWC mold. 2 1/2 hrs later I had this 55 lb pile of bullets. Should be about 2,500.

    Like a 358156 with one crimp groove and a big square grease groove.
    Beautiful! Great job on the PC too.

    It's a great .38 bullet. These are on their way to a friend in Mississippi. The post office lady doesn't like me right now but she did make sure the box was taped up well.

    Michael those sure are some shiny, well filled-out bullets.
