‘SIZING CAST PROJECTILES’ . . . From Lube-Sizing to Lee push through to an Upside Down Press . . . “What?”

‘In the beginning…’ I started casting and ‘Lube-Sized’ my rifle/pistol projectiles…back then, the choice of lube was a hot topic and there were many heated exchanges about which lube would allow particular advantages. Some lubes required a ‘heater’ to be installed under the Sizer, some not. ‘Leading’ of the barrel was a problem when the […]

Powder Coating and Sizing 9mm

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.

Making 133 gr. 9mm Plinking Ammo!

Hey guys! Been a little since I made a “start to finish” video–and finally caught my breath a little from the busyness of summer, enough to throw together a video.  I was actually searching my channel for my 9mm plinking ammo video a week or two ago, when I realized I never ended up editing […]

Casting Full Lead Bacon

Hello, This is a video I posted on YouTube on April 26, 2018. It shows a casting session with 3 molds, one of which was given to me as a give-a-way on a Full.Lead.Taco/Loads of Bacon live stream, thus the title. This is the first attempt at casting with the Taco Mold (358477) 150 grain semi […]

I had an Uncle Jim day

Tried the New NOE HOLLOW POINT MOULD. Put in long pins for deeper point, changed to a shorter pin as wasn't coming out as I intended. Mould had been cleaned and smoked, went up and down with temp, no avail. Finally added a softer alloy which did the trick.

Gathering data on velocity using True Blue powder

I was finally able to get to the range and gather some velocity data using Ramshot True Blue by Western Powders. The two bullets used were the Lee 356-124-2R and the NOE HTC-358-133-RN. The lighter Lee bullets seemed to prefer a lighter charge while the heavier bullet from NOE preferred a higher charge. This goes […]
