Tres Amigos Tres Molds Tres Rifles
We each sent the others a batch of cast bullets for testing in different rifles, different temperatures, and altitudes. But, all with the same loads. Here are our results.
I originally wanted a bullet mold which I could use to cast a heavy 300blk bullet which was easy to cast, coat, load, and shoot for plinking in my 300 blk AR15 at subsonic speeds. I tried a few of the already available molds but had feeding issues, undersized issues, boat tail issues, or issues […]
I wanted to see how much penetration these subsonic 600 gr 458 socom bullets would have through water (milk jugs). We saved up a bunch of jugs and went out to test. Watch the video for the results.

The Reloaders Network website is 6 months old! A big thanks to everyone that has been involved so far.
Also, a huge thanks to some really kind folks that sent me a few items.
Here is my entry into the Taco 2000 subscriber drawing. Thanks to Full.Lead.Taco for encouraging us all to get out and experiment to see how we would continue our hobbies in the face of the demise of civilization as we know it.
I am posting this video on behalf of Larry Palmer with his permission. I love how Larry makes a makeshift oven using a metal toolbox, a thermometer, and a homemade rocket stove. Great job Larry! Full.Lead.TacoI love guns, tacos, and lead. I use the guns. The guns eat lead. And I eat tacos. The videos […]
In today's video, I am powder coating my recent cast 9mm rounds. I am using Harbor Freight Red powder. I am having trouble with the powder sticking to the bullets. After watching several videos from authors of The Reloaders Network, I'm still not getting the results I want. All the rounds are usable, but they just don't look the best. Some have thin and thick spots, and some have bare spots. Factors such as weather, humidity, and types of plastic containers could be affecting my results. All the rounds were sized to .356 using a NOE Sizing Die.
Today is the day. First time casting bullets. I am using a Lee 4 20lb pot. A NOE HTC358-133-RN-BO5 2 cavity mould. I have several pounds of processed wheel weights that I will be using. My first session this morning, about 50% were acceptable, and the second session after lunch about 85-90% were looking good.
