Idle hands... Tools of the Devil don't you know

[johnly]

My latest mold HP adventure... a SC 375248. It drops bullets at .381" and now does hollow points as well. Time to dust off the Marlin 375.

Did you do the work? Bullets look great!

Excellent! Show us the mould please.

I didn't have time to let the mold cool before I posted the pictures of the bullets, but it looks similar to the mold conversion in this conversation:

Boy, you get some people started and they just don't stop..:kidding:
Looks good, let us know how it works. My Dad's got a .375 Marlin sitting around somewhere.........

I did a 357446 SC mold while I was at it, but didn't have any time to cast some sample bullets.:wink:

I still have a few molds in my queue waiting for treatment:

257420
357311
358250
452374

Here's a picture of the bullets I cast using the modified 357446 mold that I HP'ed

Looks like the pin comes in a tad far . . . if you blow up that picture there is a inside ring . . . but I'm sure when it hits something it will all flatten out!:smile:

The pin goes in to the point where the bullet reaches full diameter.
