I was not real sure where this thread should land but it involves PC and a bullet designed around it.
The concept started because I wanted a mid-weight 9mm made specifically for PC.
I contacted Tom at Accurate Molds on a Saturday evening and told him what I was looking for. He had a design that was close to what I wanted, it just needed to have the lube grooves removed/ not added.
I sent the money, and Tom had started on it Sunday and had it in the mail Monday..... ZOOM
When I got home I was floored that it got to me by Wednesday.
Kid with a new toy ... Had to play
112164112165 about 120 or so.. Mold worked like a champ. It is an aluminum 5 cavity and it liked to run a bit cooler than my other molds. I probably only tossed back 10 or 12 that were defective.
I ordered the dia. to be .357 as cast I got about .358/.3575
112166112167
Next thru the sizer...
112168112169112170112171
Within 1 Grain and sized to .356
Then the powder coat.112172
and into the oven.
112173after the PC. Right on the Chili !
