So I generally run 650-700dg for normal casting but I got a new hollow point mold from Miha 45 200gr and was told to run hotter to get good fill out so I did 800dg and the mold works great these are water dropped so I dont have to wait to long to drop them from the mold I am not having any size issues with mold. So now I break out my other new mold from NEI and it 450-500-550-600gr 500mag. mold and ran it at 800 for the first 2 session but the bullets are droping on the small side .499-.500 these are also water dropped. I also ran some 115gr .30 cal boolits while i had the pot running still at 800dg and they seem to be droping small .308 insted of the .310 im used to getting out of this boolit. Probably gonna do some more casting this coming weekend but does lead temp really affect final boolits size? Or is it the water dropped that makeing them run small?
