Hey guys, i tried shooting a few cast bullets this week from Scott F here on the 'Fire. I am not sure why, but i am getting some leading. The bullets are a 235 grain truncated cone lubed with alox. I am not sure what he is sizing them to.
I tried them out of my .45 ACP with 5 grains of bullseye and a winchester LP primer. The book says it is supposed to put out a velocity of 815 FPS. Is my load too hot?
Scott says he has no issues with leading using the same pistol and bullet, only a different powder.
Whats going on?
I wiped off the base and the cone of the bullet to keep things clean, but i did the base before i loaded them and i wiped the cone clean after they were seated.
