    It's worth a try. Plenty of people run plain base 9mm that fast with no issues. I'm going to be testing .44mag plain base a good bit faster than that soon too.

    You will be good to go. We coat black and brick red. I shoot lots of full house 357 and 44 in revolvers and carbines with great success. I chronoed the .44 Henry at 1850 fps with a 240 grn SWC and the super blackhawk at 1290fps. No issues at all.

    Is That the Gold 1035 colour?
    It is very nice, and seems to have a green hue.

    Wait till you see the Candy Apple Red..... It is magnificent, ( even if I say so myself...lol)

    A commercial caster here, is supplying me information on use of the Candy Apple with rifle ammo.
    From initial discussions, users of cast coated with Candy Apple have reported to manufacturer exceptional results. I am eagerly waiting for those details.

    Looks like hardline and Gold 1035 to me.
    The 122k/1035 Candy Apple is a very nice red.
    See the photo HITEK put up a few pages back, of my Hardline 45 ammo. that is coated with the Candy Apple and the green ones are the Kryptonite green.
    Hooroo.

    Looks like you lose some coating during sizing? I can see a bare lead there..

    I was able to get my order replaced, so I'm a happy man.

    Don't think there is bare lead.
    Gunoil coats thin. That is the best coating. Looks fine.
    Hooroo.

    Does anyone know if the Black 1035 powder sold by Gateway has the 2-Extreme catalysis in it?

    To answer you in short, No.
    The powders that are with Gateway were first production batches, and were based on original recipe, as used in the solvent based systems.
    The need was to produce exactly the same results with the powders as being obtained with the liquid systems.
    That was achieved.
    Then requests came for modified versions, which had to be made and tested.
    They also worked well and equivalent to 2-extreme liquid systems.

    Now, powders will be available in standard catalyst version as well as 2-Extreme versions.

    Hope your question has been answered.

    Just a quick add-on to above.
    Aside from demands for 2-Extreme powders, we also had some asking about harder, and more durable resin system.
    We managed to make a solvent and powder system, that not only worked, but exceeded all expectations with a far better polymer system that also had 2-Extreme properties.
    All of these were tested with traditional hand guns and with higher velocity applications.
    As advised in my previous blog, I am waiting for test results that I will publish.
    Ausglock has been lucky enough to now have and use the resin system for a while, in his Kryptonite Green (liquid form).
    He has used 2-Extreme and 3-Extreme catalyst with new resin system with success.
    I am told, that all who try his coated non lube grooved alloys, are amazed.
    May be he can advise more himself.

    Thanks Joe. That was the answer to my question.

    If tougher resin proves out it would be something I would be interested in for my rifles. Even though the 44 mag. lever gun has had no leading at almost max loads with the liquid Gold 1035, always looking for something better. I like the idea of being able to shoot full pressure loads. But sometimes they are not the most accurate loads. Let us know if it starts shipping to the US.

    We are a lot of pistol and revolver shooters inhere, but I didnīt find a post with some rifle rounds, maybe I missed it.

    Well, Iīm feeling very safe and wholy hearted happy with my coated pistol bullets meanwhile.

    So I want to try out some reduced loads with my old service rifles, a US Modell of 1917 and a Swiss IG11.

    Has anyone inhere did this before and is willing to share his experiences?

    There have been several. My rifle test .308 and .44 are on pages 183 and 203. Not the best groups but still working on which powders and loads.

    They look great. You have done well.
    Have you sized any?
    Please take a photo of sized items so we can see what it looks like.
    Thanks much.

    Does the Candy Red come in the powdered version?

    What are the available powdered versions?
