Are you sizing first then powder coating ?

In fact, they are so soft that it's in fact almost pure 100% Lead. Because it's not really an alloy, it casts with great difficulty and does not flow as well as the crimp-on wheelwreights. You also would want to increase the temperature a lot to effectively cast a nice bullet without wrinkles. They made great roundballs and I use them exclusively to cast my .715" and .735" roundballs. These balls consume huge amounts of lead, being 550 and 650 grains respectively.*******************************
I was told the stick on weights are NOT pure lead, the need to be softer than lead and are therefore an alloy. I have believed this since forever,
I now actually researched it to correct your post only to find that the stick on weights I have been turning down are actually the real thing ..........................Waaaaaaaaa ha ha ha !

Quote from: Treeman on May 05, 2024, 09:29 PMI have hundreds of reloads for every caliber I own and will likely not hunt through my stock.I will help you get over your "kak" attitude - by taking your "excess" off your hands ..
I know this is a "kak" attitude to have, but has kinda just slipped in.
