YouTube is also an excellent source for loads.
Lots on their for 410, 12, and 10.

Nice BT.

Do you recall how that test load with 31gr of Longshot performed?

Yeah, Ryan made a post yesterday on the FB group showing his new Azots

Thanks, White Eagle!

What's your load with the Longshot, and how is that working out?

The mold I have is what I had custom made for myself last week because I couldn't find anyone with it.

Longbow

I have already been commenting on BT's thread and got a suggestion for Longshot. I'll check out the other thread too.

Thanks again!

Longbow, I appreciate your time and you looking for me.

If you could message me any info that you do have, I'd appreciate it.

I agree and would like to, and can, do that.
Yet I just read the 'Fluxing Technique" sticky for the first time, and it appears this is who Larry has been, and is, as a person.

That would only be true IF you don't water cool after heat treating, whether it's after a 15-20 minute powder coat session, or for an hour to make a harder boolit.
If there's no water cooling after...

The higher the FPS, the harder the bullet requirement.

LOL....I totally agree.

That's why I made the link post to lasc.us

Thanks!

Blue Dot is very close to Longshot in burn rate, just a tad faster, whereas Steel burns a little slower.

I appreciate the information!

Hey BT, what were your results?

I'm trying to put together the same. I have a custom mold made replicating the Dixie IXL-DGS slug @ 1.75oz, before any components are added.

I too only have...

As Bello mentioned, the molds you are asking about are made by Svarog and AS-MOLD. Both are Russian companies with highly sought after slug molds designed to fit those Azot wads, but their current...

Does anyone have or know the load data for the Dixie IXL-DGS slug?

Powder type and amount? I'd appreciate any information.

Good information. Thank you!
I water cool my PC'd boolits, so no annealing.
If I didn't then it appears they will anneal.

Edit: I see where I left out water cooling after PC'ing and went back...

No, it's not too much with a BHN of 16. It's classic hardball lead, and the choice for high velocity rifle boolits, as well as handguns. That is also the alloy used in commercial boolits, so it's a...

I have read the comments about fluxing, including a few that say they don't or there's no need. This is such a misinformed subject.

Fluxing is ABSOLUTELY necessary because it is the only way to...

I'm confused by the anneal statement since it has to do with specifically cooling slowly to avoid stress cracking a metal, and not with heating it over a certain time. Unless I'm wrong?

Edit:
You...

Not necessarily true.
Your process doesn't make them as hard due to most powder coating are at around 375F - 400F for 10 - 20 minutes, and to get a real hard cast you need much higher temps for a 1...

LOL....a true Dangerous Game Slug
I've read so much about how awesome it was, plus the Taofledermaus video, that I had to get a custom mold made of it since you can't buy them anymore.

Heat treating won't make them soft.

You'll heat treat for an hour, then water cool.
Higher temp heat treatment with water cooling at 70F makes for harder bullets.

Here's detailed information,...
