First of all I need to thank Swede Nelson from Night owl (NOE) Bullet Molds for letting me come over and showing me the ropes. He even sent me home with 65 bullets to load up and make sure my gun would eat them before he sold me one of his H&G 130 196gr 45acp molds.
Well they did, so I went back and got a 4 cavity and one of his digital thermometers. Both of which I highly recommend. I cleaned the mold with a tooth brush, smoked it with a bic, and started casting. After 8 drops the mold was up to temp and popping out beauties. It seemed like the mold likes to run right around 400 degrees. After and hour or so of messing around I ended up with these...feast your eyes:happy dance::happy dance:
Thanks again Swede for helping me get started.
