I don't think so much detail is necessary, we can listen to everyone's opinions, and surely, we will learn something from all of them.

The difficult thing is to argue with technical/bibliographical knowledge the reason for each thing. Then each one adjusts to what they have.

The mold I use gives me boolits of .360 at this temperature (740F)
Does the PC have greater adhesion? I doubt it.
I will soon make another post with deficiencies in PC adhesion in these boolits....

Thanks for the comments, I'm sure I'm slowly lowering the temperature
Just as they say, it hardens faster that way

I started making some 9mm boolits, and I had the PID configured with 750F
I dipped one corner of the mold (aluminum) into the alloy
The mold heated up faster, actually cutting the sprue plate was...

I've done those types of loads in my FM with power pistol, really hot, I stopped at 7.4 grains.
I think your weapon is going to suffer accelerated wear if you use those loads a lot.

I have read your ideas, tomorrow I will go buy some cheap glue and if possible, one that works for high temperatures.
Thanks

Just as the title says, I have a Lee mold handle that the wood slides back, what do you use to fix them?

Being optimistic, most of the time a 22LR does not shoot more than 100 meters. So in my opinion, you never need more than 4 or 6x if you are shooting casually and hunting.

Thank you for your answers
We only have 3031, 4064 and 4350 available
The one that is really tempting me is 4350 for the 765x54 and 314299
Forum: Factory & Surplus Powder
Hello everyone, imr powder 4350, 4064 and 3031 have just arrived.
I have quite a bit of Win 760, do you think it's a good idea to buy a couple of pounds of 4350 to try on my 7.65x54 or my 308?...
thanks for answering

Does anyone know where I can get a tanfoglio/EAA stock 2 9mm extractor in Anchorage, Alaska?
A friend will pass by and can bring it to me, yesterday the one on my gun broke.
Thanks
Thank you all for the data, I think I will have to measure speed with this load to know where I am standing, although speed is not the best way to know the pressure, at least I have a parameter to...
Well, I have finally tried my new MP mold, https://www.mp-molds.com/product/359-640-solid-plain-base-no-lube-groove-8-cav-alu/

I need speed to go far, with the 311299 I can go up to 500 meters, I expected that with the TR 1:12 the 311466 would work better to reach 600 meters.
But it seems to me that I have...

I have had good results with 311466. This time they were boolits that I had stored with lubricant. I didn't measure speed, but obviously I should have given the other two much less.
Too bad I didn't...
