Cold and raining. We needed .44 boolits. Friend Pete came over so I heated the mold and pot. Bad thing is my .44 mold is single cavity. I showed Pete how to cast and first boolit was perfect. We ran a few hundred without a single reject. New alloy of 16# of WW's and 4# of stereo lead casts so good it is unreal. No torn sprues, clean cuts. Real sharp edges.
He is still a little messy but fell into the groove. I sorted through all of his and not a single bad one so I loaded some rounds for him. He took the rest home to find he has no GC's or the .431" size die needed.
I never shot this alloy so will try and get down today to see what I have. Cold and windy out.
It is a pleasure to not have to toss a boolit back in the pot.
Pete never, ever made a good boolit before and is going to buy a Lee pot now. He is disgusted with the price of LBT's and mine is a close copy at 330 gr with an ogive better for the cone.
