    Alright I cast up a bunch of the Lee swc and Lee 100 gr round nose last night.
    Didn't get them all coated yet. It was 1230 when I headed in.
    But I should have enough cast for now.
    A 20lb pot throws a significantly greater amount of tiny 32 projectiles then say a 250 swc.
    The Lee 100 gr rn I have throws an oversize bullet.
    I can either squeeze those down for 30cal or use them coated in 32.
    I originally intended to load them into 762x25 but they just won't work good for that one.
    Will try them in 30 carbine though.
    Zombie green is the color.

    Quick question, how large does the Lee 311-100-2R usually drop? It's listed for the .32 revolvers but .311 is really skinny for them.
    Currently casting and loading: .32 Auto, .380 Auto, .38 Special, 9X19, .357 Magnum, .257 Roberts, 6.5 Creedmoor, .30 WCF, .308 WCF, .45-70.

    Well with powder coat on it, they go threw a Lee 314 sizer with not much effort.
    Mine must be throwing large.
    I am using sheet lead, wheel weights and recovered berm bullets.
    So pretty soft stuff.

    Ohh I almost forgot and I have been jumping with excitement, my Arsenal mould came.
    Definitely messed up and should have gotten aluminum.
    98 gr Keith type bullet. 50/50 4 holer plain base/gas checked
    But this thing is heavy enough.

    4 hole brass? yea you’ll feel the weight. It should be great casting though and they don’t seem to overheat near as fast as aluminum.

    With brass I think I stop at three cavity now. Enough to speed things up over a double cavity some.

    Anything 4 cav that I order now is aluminum. Price is better too.
