For my first attempt I used an RCBS Pro-Melt to cast Lyman 358063 DEWC boolits. The alloy I used was 2.22% Sn / 2.21% Sb / 0.18% As / 95.39% Pb according to Bumpo's calculator.

The pot ran between 755 and 820 degrees. It was 40 degrees outside with a bit of a wind. I had 268 good boolits and 10 rejects. Boolit diameter was 0.3575". Aberage weight is 143.179gr with a standard deviation of 0.68gr. The lightest boolit was 139.0gr and the heaviest was 144.5gr.
