    Tried something new today

    Cast some bullets for my 44 mag today. I'm newer to powder coating, only have 2 powders, eastwood ford light blue and powder by the pound glass clear. The ford light blue goes on thicker than I liked. The glass clear has been amazing. I decided to play around a little today. I coated in clear and sprinkled some blue over the top. It was kinda uneven, but came out looking ok. then I added some blue and clear together and coated some bullets. came out kind of translucent metalic, super cool.

    Left is the powders mixed, right is sprinkled on.

    I'm forever mixing mine when I PC. I like the changes in colors and gives me a way to tell one batch from the next--not that is something I really need to do

    Yours looks very shootable and that' what it's all about

    have fun where you can find it
