I started PC and it seems I am consumed by it I guess. I spent the most of the weekend PC bullets cast out of my 40 mehic mold I just acquired. Well of coarse with any new mold you must cast with it ASAP so that's what I been doing. Starting with the penta point then after I got about two gals worth I moved on to the HP next is the solid. So this weekend I started PC them and finished up today with a rainbow of colors. I picked up some powder from a guy that PC for the public rims or frames what ever they want PC and I get his left overs. So I start out with lets say red then go to blue then I mix the over spray and got purple then I got some gold out and shot it. I kept on spraying the colors then mixing them until I ran out and started over with new colors.
After several hours a day PC my wife was out in the shop and I asked her how she like the bullets and got a sarcastic reply no love shared on the PCing lol. But I love it and had a good time now its back to casting up some more so the process can start all over again.
Just sharing this as I am sure I am not alone.

Oh yeah. Definitely. If I could live with coating everything HF red, it would shoot great, no lead, and everything would be just fine. But no...... I want colors! [smilie=p:
(I actually ordered more color today from smoke4320):oops:

Way cool ammo! Question- do your 124TC's drop big enough to size down for 358? I love that boolit but only use it in 9mm.

ohh yeah they drop at .358 or so
and the coat gives plenty of room to work with
i run the same size in the revolver and the autos
for the 9mm i use the Lee .38s&w expander die
makes lead in 9mm much easier
i tried a Lyman M die for 9mm but not near as good as the .38s&w expander
i use a Mdie for .38/.357

It's actually CDO- in alphabetical order, just as it should be. :)

My little helpers and they like all the new colors
Also my oldest son is looking them over picking out the color he wants to load his 10 mm with as soon as he gets his new barrel all you see is his hands not really that much of a model lol.
