View Full Version : Casting article by mike V.
Mike Venturino has an article in the April edition of Handloader called "Bullet Casting Basics". I thought it was a pretty good article.
Just thought i would mention it.
Somewhat of a repeat of previous handloader article

I liked that he mentioned the need for dedicated time and space to cast. Not something often mentioned but important.

I agree. Dedicated time is one of my biggest problems to overcome. It's that way with all of my interests.

Mike really knows how to cast and makes great boolits.
I just can't figure out where he finds all the hours in a day to make boolits for all he shoots!
I got up at dawn, had coffee, loaded 10 .44's for a Keith test, shot them, spun twice and the day is almost gone. :veryconfu:veryconfu:veryconfu:veryconfu
When is Mike going to tell me how he stretches time? :bigsmyl2:
Don't get me wrong, I think that Mike is one of the best gun writers around, but when I read this article I couldn't help but wonder how he could write an article for beginning casters and not mention Lee products at all.
"...I couldn't help but wonder how he could write an article for beginning casters and not mention Lee products at all."
Interesting, I had the same thought.

As Mike is a member here, and as he writes such good articles, what are the odds that his articles can be posted on this forum and made a 'sticky'? Or, perhaps, a sub-forum of his (and other writers) own?

All I know is that Mike sold another isue of "Handloader" If he does not have an atrticle in it, I don't buy it. The article on light 16 ga loads was good as well, the rest, well the word chaf comes to mind.

I'm liking that new guy, Terry Wieland. Reading his shotgun and shotgun reloading articles and I'm not even a shotgunner. Any guy that hunts with a guns over 100 years old is OK in my book.

There may be copyright issues with "mirroring" an article published by "Handloader" or other periodicals. I don't know what Mike V's arrangements are with Wolfe Publications, but every time I've sold or given an article as a free-lance writer, the publisher wants to own the copyright control on its content. When I have been paid, that is the consideration received for surrender of copyright to the publisher.
