Thanks, just what I was looking for.

Lots of good info. Once it stops snowing will have to do a little casting.
Also does any one have a good recipe for a 200gr RN FP lead bullet in either 44mag or 44spec? Looking for a lite load for...

May have get one of the NOE HTC459-354-FN-BU5 molds. Leaning towards the the PB, powder coat version.
Are you guys buying the brass or aluminum molds?

Yes. I measured the OAL and that is 1.36", so must be same bullet.

Came across a Lee mold labeled, "Lee-AAC" mold. Anyone using one or point me in the right direction?

Curious, I noticed on E-Bay that there are a few Vendors that offer modified magazine Followers.

Anyone loaded the Speer 45ACP plastic target bullets in a 45LC?
They work as primer powered in my 45's very well.

Not to get total off subject. But Intel6 where did you get that Grey PC you used on your cast bullets?

Ruger Super Black Hawk 44 Mag.

Not to get this thread off target but just got this mold last week. So do you guys just seat to the top ring? Going to powder coat some tomorrow.

Will give 20 gr 2400. OAL?
May even powder coat some.

Guys
Any load suggestions?

I just received a old set of Lyman 429 421 mold blocks never used plus a set of handles that appear to be made out of brass.
This is the original Keith 245gr Semi-Wad Cutter.
Box states Lyman, A...

I just powdered coated some of these. Now to figure what powder to use.

I just casted up some 180gr WC from a Ideal 2C 429348 mold. Getting ready to load some up and I'm looking for OAL.

Anyone loading Berry's 240gr bullets in 44 Magnum?

Just what is WWs, LinoType, pure lead or even tin worth now?
Getting ready to start casting again and trying to figure am I better off buying blended L2 or buy every thing and blend it myself.

My local trap club has Federal F209A primers for $49.99, limit of one brick a month.

I just took a closer look and the 10 pellet shells are just a little to lumpy on the sides. So I tried doing a 3 pellet layer for 3 layers and a much nicer looking shell.

Loaded up a few and a tight fit, with 10 "00" pellets all sits maybe 1/8" above wad but once crimped turns out a nice looking shell. Not sure if shot all stays round but this is for close in...

Interested in loading some 00 buckshot. Going to try 33.0gr Bluedot, F209A primer, 12S4 wad, Federal paper base wad hull with 10 #00 pellets. Will be using a PW 375 press.
Any tips would be...

FYI Found a older thread on here. Cranked heat up to 725 and used the pressure method of filling mold. Works like a champ!

Finally tried out my new Lee 00 buckshot mold. Using a Lyman #2 lead mixture, running the pot at 700 degrees. Just can't seem to get lead flow all the way down, even after letting mold heat up. Any...

Going to try casting some 00 buckshot for my 12 gauge. Can I use a L2 lead mixture or should I use straight lead?
