Cut for GC, but no gc, what up?
Might be like me, I shoot GC bullets without the check most times.Originally Posted by MT Chambers
I didn't realize it was the GC mould when I bought it. Based on what I've read on this forum, I thought it was ok to use without the GC.
And it is! Go shoot them purdy boolits!

Very good for your first time. Now fire up that thing and make a mess of em' the next go round.
May all your bullets find the Bullseye.
you can always have the GC slot removed, make it into a plain base and gain a few grains of weight
I bought a mold like this from someone on the board
<----- that one
It shoots like a house a fire out of my long barrel single shot

Out of the 4 GC handgun bullet moulds that i have all shoot accurately with out gas checks installed in every handgun i have in that caliber 38/357 . 44 and 45 cal
Excellent job. And a little more knowledge on GC bullets for me. Thanks everyone for the lesson.
be aware that you can shoot G/C boolits without the G/C's however you may be doing so at reduced velocity's.
I can shoot my 410610's in my 41 mag without them, but it requires me to keep the velocity's down to about 800 fps to keep the accuracy too.
Don't worry about the credit card charges. You will be saving so much money casting Boolits you won't know what to do with it all. At least that is what we tell ourselves....
They look great. I know the info here gave me the confidence to take the plunge
very nice. Thanks for sharing.
