Does anyone use Allox for these calibers? If so how well do they work out?
Forum: Cast Boolits
Can I use WW to cast the 40 sw and the 9mm? I guess what I need to ask is , that alloy going to be hard enough for two calibers? Also I use Accurate #2 for my 45 and 40 calibers now. The 40sw`s...

Very nice set up you made. I Like that foot pedal. I just do not understand how the top of the pot works? Do you have to unbolt it?

I may...

That is really a very nice set up you built there. I am just in aww ,great job JMSJ. The foot pedal is a nice feature,very creative on your part.

Kimber makes a good 1911 and Dan Wesson`s are also good for 1911 platforms. I have a Sig P220 and it like the cast boolits I make also. I use 200 grain SWC TL Lee mold.
I used some Husquvarna chain saw chain lube on my Sprue plate. It worked really well. The galling stopped and the sprue holes quit sticking lead. My mold worked really well. I am not sure if any of...
