Using thin aluminum tape to hold the mold slightly open. This gives you slightly larger boolits
"HMMMM.........It wasn't spos'ta do THAT!"
I suggest, politely, that most of the time these sort of questions are most easily answered
by use of the search function. There are whole threads with lots of detail, so you can
learn to whatever level you want to go.

Hit on castpics/Articles by Memebers/Mould Diameter Enlargement and it will explain what were talking about....with pictues.
Actually it's a method to increase the diameter of your cast bullets by a couple of thou without modifying your mould./beagle
diplomacy is being able to say, "nice doggie" until you find a big rock.....
