I didn't need the bullets yet but couldn't stand it anylonger to see how the alloy cast. Then got around to what I had. Cleaned the mould with Winchester Powder Blast and used NEI Mould Prep and made a few. No sorting when I cast them, the first bullets are included in that 117 though there must be one laying on the shelf with that odd number. I have found in the past if I want REAL accurate weights to use my beam scale and this kind of confirms that experience.

with those prior tests.
