Bullet Casting

I made a ot of the 50/50 bullets then cut the nose of and sized it to just under as cast dia.
I would put a nose in the mould (use fine nedlenose pliers to keep fingers away from thr heat :whistle: = experience) and fill with lino eavinf a decent sprue puddle when that had silvered off I put the mould into the pt till the sprue starts to shine telling me it both alloys have melted and become one so there was no danger of them breaking at the join. You can see from the pic in the previous post how well they he;d together. I would have a wet towel handle and a fan that I could start the cooling process but waited till sprue was well set before turning out the bullet and starting on the next one. Weight difference bullet was generally in the dismissable area so these were very accurate bullets and one that was better than the NP in its weight retention. Killed a lot of goats with them.
