Doug must like his new machine because he's cranking out those special orders. I'll have about half in the mail this afternoon and the rest out quick as I can.

leftoverdj...
not to mirror Dutch 4122 but I only recieved 1 mold today ( It's in fine shape -Thanks!)....Could my 2nd one still be in the mail???
Thanks, Dale (62899-DH- 2 molds)
Thanks Emmett!!! Mold arrived in fine shape and record time - - seems like the USPS Priority Mail people are leaving the Brown Trucks in the dust.
WELL if it ain't Christmas in August! I got mine looks very good, I would say even better than the 35 cal 6 banger from the last group buy. Now if it shoots as good as it looks. I am thinking I should have ordered 2 as I am now commited to casting for 4 K31's. A couple of my buds came by the other night and wanted boolits............ I gave them enough to keep them busy this weekend, they left me 3K of GC's.
I hope this takes the work out of part of it, lol. I think I see another group buy for GC's that is going to be needed before the snow flies.
Many thanks to all that made this possible.
If it had only came a day sooner, but did get 2K of some 375, 35 and 30's cast this AM. Who says working on Saturdays sucks. Pay me 1 1/2 for amking boolits ya gotta love it. Started at 3:30AM and was getting low on alloy by 10:00 AM.
Ken, I swear I am gonna get ya for this!!!!............................... (grin)
Jeff
BTW, what nose punch works for this?
Thanks again guys, ALL of you.
Well, it is here. I poured a coffee can full and some more. Off to inspection.
Diamater, .313 to .314. Weight 151.3 to 151.8 for all 6 cavities. Sized and lubed a few hundred. I haven't loaded any YET, but will tomorrow morning to see how they shoot in my 308 and Enfield.
I used top punch #115 RCBS. It works Purfect! It takes the slightly squared off front and puts a nice radius on it that makes the boolit look even better.
I poured 3 or 4 to get the mold warm, then I cleaned it with an aresol solvent, Called Wellworth Shop Kleen, or Castle shop solve. Poured 5 or 6 more, whipped out my butane lighter and smoked the cavities. Perfect boolits every time after that. None stuck in the mold and no wrinkles. Nice sharp bands. If I didn't hold the handles tight when pouring, I was getting finned boolits. Today I am using 9 lbs wheelweights and one lb 50/50 solder.
Thanks Again
David
