Seems like this one is going nowhere. Is anyone interested in doing this through NOE? Turnaround time there is pretty fast.

Curse my short attention span! :bigsmyl2:

I'm still in!

Rats, I'm stuck in the dadgummed hospital! Guess I'll have to tell the doc to get a move on because I've got casting to do!

Might as well sign me up for a 3 cavity HP. headamp at gmail dot com.

Four cavity mould for me, as I posted before. Headamp at Gmail dot Com (if you need that).

I cast a few hundred and had about 60% culls which was my fault - this is my first non aluminum mould and I had some problems with temperature control.

Anyway, with straight wheelweights, they...

I had to chase down the mailman after he rang and ran, but it was worth it!

Those moulds look almost too pretty to use!

Probably going to be at least another two weeks, if other GBs are any indication.

I'm in for a four cav mould.

I'm also OK with an Accurate mold.

I'm still in for Mi-Hec or NOE, whichever.

I shoot that one with Trailboss. I don't recall how much, but it's very accurate in my Rossi 92 and also in an Uberti Model P. I size them to .358. They're also great fun with black powder.

I'm in for a two cavity solid, please!

I think you guys are right...I'm going to upgrade the beer to pizza and beer! They really are a great bunch of guys.

I shoot air cooled wheel weights from my Garand. I experimented with the load until it would reliably cycle the action. I haven't chrony'd it yet, but I don't have any leading problems. If recoil...

Allen wrenches. I don't know what the deal is with them, but this year, I've picked out 15 or 20 allen wrenches, all 1/4", all really cheap. Maybe they come with some sort of kit that the shop is...

Got a call last week from my buddy at the tire store. He wanted to know when I was going to come down and "take this lead off his hands". I hot-footed it down the next day and he had two five...

I shoot lead through my M1 (Garand). I've kept a close eye on the gas system and, so far, so good. Don't have an AR, so I've never tried that.

This is what I, too, find. I end up with a fairly clean pile of steel clips to take to the metal recycler.

I don't want to derail this thread too badly, but I'll add my two cents' worth about suburban lead smelting. I do mine in the garage with a hood and fan system to pull the nasties outside through a...

Sign me up for a four cavity solid 0.454 mold - headamp (at) gmail (dot) com

Thanks!!

I'm down to a couple of hundred pounds of wheel weights and maybe 120 pounds of soft. That's certainly not enough (I'm only 50), but my buddy at the tire store always has a five gallon bucket...

I picked up a 5 gallon bucket from my buddy at the tire store here in Boise on Thursday afternoon. I'm about 3/4 of the way through it and so far it's about:

15% steel
45% clip on
40% stick on...
