    "I don't normally cast with gloves though."

    Born to be wild bro!! I always wear leather gloves and a shop apron while casting. Once, long ago, I accidentally touched the corner of an RCBS 44 caliber mold to the side of my arm. It took 30 years for that scar to go away. You do it the way that you feel safest; me, once burned twice shy.

    I had bolt head down at first.
    The solid soft lead bullet is undoubtably the best and most satisfactory expanding bullet that has ever been designed. It invariably mushrooms perfectly, and never breaks up. With the metal base that is essential for velocities of 2000 f.s. and upwards to protect the naked base, these metal-based soft lead bullets are splendid.

    Forget everything you know about loading jacketed bullets. This is a whole new ball game!
