I recently purchased a mold to cast .45 caliber bullets for my 1911.  In this video, I use the mold to cast three different style bullets, and then powder coat and size them.  This mold has no lube groove, and the bullets must be coated with Hi-Tek or powder coat.

‘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 […]

In this video, we load, test, and look at the results of 35 Remington loaded with IMR-3031. We test 5, 5 shot groups ranging in half grain increments from 34.5 to 36.5 grains. I was expecting better groups from this powder, but some days after a range trip, you just don’t feel like you shot […]

I recently cast bullets for 9mm with the NOE HTC358-133-RN mold, powder coated them with Eastwood Lime Green, and sized them to .358". I am now working up a load with Unique powder, which is a challenge since there is no published load data for this or a similar bullet. I am shooting these from my Beretta 92S.

This is the seventh video in the Powder Coated Cast Lead Hollow Point Bullet Testing series, which is a long experiment testing powder coated cast lead hollow point bullets made from various alloys and fired at various velocities. In this video I have a little fun using various methods to measure the hardness of the lead alloys used to cast the bullets that will be used for this test.

Casting .44 Keith bullet and powder coating

Casting & Loading 357 SIG

I recently purchased two molds from Arsenal Molds.

I haven't been able to do any bullet casting, reloading, or make any trips to the gun range in about 3 months. I finally had a chance to do all three, so I grabbed the mold for one of my favorite bullets, the Lyman 429421, which is Elmer Keith's famous bullet for the .44 Special and .44 Magnum.

Very generous package from a new friend.
