I need to talk to you about using that fancy mould. I know I have to use some lube on the sprue plate but don't know what to use.
the guy in slovenia that makes those brass moulds sends a little tube of some kind of lube for the sprue plate. I have the same mould he is sending you.
It and several others i have got from the slovenian guy i have used without using the supplied lube. Didn't seem to hurt anything.
I think brian had the one that had four holes, and pins to make different kinds of bullets. Nominally 270grain keith style bullet. With wheelweights they tend to cast around 280 or so.
The pentad hollowpoint is nasty.
I add leadfree solder to the mix in the pot. Or you could use tin. It makes a very distinct well defined bullet. I fired one of those at about 1100fps out of a 8 3/8 smith, through a four inch prospectus. The recovered pill was about .95 in diameter.
neat bullet.
