Getting ready for Christmas. Smoke's powder, one coat dry tumbled. The cooler, dryer weather down here is definitely better for Dry tumbling.
It works, see tumble lubed boolit set to same length.

Traditional hard lubed boolit also at same length.

Used in my rifle, they do OK.

I just started doing PC, shown here on my first batch of 7.62x39mm boolits, the 160gr Lee, that do sit flush. Mods, note how I DID meet thread guidelines and make sure a PC boolit is in the thread. :)

But initial testing of the 129 PC boolit shows some promise.

Well, I finally finished a practice run and an final with red/black mixed... came out maroon.
Used foil over washers and had a lot of flash to trimat the top of the gac check seat ridge, even before sizing/check seating.
Like the results, but really need to eleminate flash... recommendations?
I spray them close together, i just make sure to spray a good amount. Attachment 124737

ASBBDT HF red next to ASBBDT HFBlack+HF White.
I know other people don't seem to be able to get any success from the HF powders but I'm pretty happy with my HF grey.

This is a Lee 2 cavity mold 124 grain rn with orange from Powder by the pound

This is from a MP 2 cavity mold that is 124 grain round flat hollow point with glossy black and machine gray from Eastwood that came with the ES gun kit I bought from Eastwood. The gray coated one was easier to size than the black coated one. The Orange above were easy to size also.
