Thanks! I'm finding that out just a little too late! lol Hope I can find some as I don't know anyone else who loads or does cast bullets. Seems like after all these years I would have met someone at the ranges who likes handloading and has lots of knowledge of cast bullets. Wish I would have had these forums when I started handloading! Could have taught me and saved me lots! lol


Proper prior practice prevents piss poor performance!
