KE4GWE - - - - - - Colt 1860, it just feels right.
here are some boolits with some of the colors I have tried, starting at the left is powderbythepound starlite teal, than all powders ss penny, all powders sun gold, than eastwoods copper vein, than powderbythepound copper vien and last some more all powders sun gold with a bronze base coat to darken the gold. This was all done with the dry tumbling with airsoft 25g BBs.
That was my first whack at PCing a case. I didn't get powder on the top because of how I was keeping powder from getting inside. Ever since then they've all been fine with no chipping or anything from going through all four dies. I shot several and the cases looked same as fresh from the oven.
I've posted several pics-

AND THE COLLECTION GROWS.
MEMBERS TRY TO STAY ON TRACK WITH THE THEME OF THIS THREAD AVOID REPOSTING THE SAME PICTURES.
I chose to take on the task of this thread so we could have a thread that some could look at and enjoy just seeing others work. This is a team effort and if we all stick to the guide lines I feel it will be quite enjoyable to reveiw and see the progess of the progess in this new way doing things.
Reloading to save money I am sure the saving is going to start soon
PBTP clear, with some black leftover from another session the black goes on forever, i think a teaspoon would make a pound of clear look silvery
I can see the nuts on top of the foil getting coated and not working twice. I tried to make some rings to hold my longer heavies that tip over to easy but after one use the ground was lost. Not at contact on the bullet but on the ring hanging on the metal rod.

These are 30 cal more of a test to see if my rack worked not one of my go to bullets in my rifles.
