Deff Hooked! :)
Made a single leadtip for the sake of it (just playing) 235gr with small tip.

I'm stuck now though due to lack of lead wire supply.
Sent you a email other day - did you get it?

Spanners,
Rolling your own gets to be very addictive. I found that I really don't save much money by making my own, but I do have control over what goes down the barrel. That places quality control in my own hands, and allows some options in the configuration as well. Enjoy those boolits you make yourself, it is a really great feeling.
