    I could see the Count Dracula round in a period derringer. "You've only got one shot, make it count!" Nice end to a B movie....

    The Make My Day could certainly be cast in lead, would be funny.

    Might be a tough drop, but I'd buy one.

    I cast some pure zinc one time in a mold- you don't want the sprue to set, let me tell ya! Cut it by hitting the sprue plate with a lead hammer.
    It would be easier to silver plate a RN FMJ and use a nickel case for best looks.

    How much silver is needed to kill "the undead" or "the cursed"?

    Why not just put some silver nitrate in an hollow point and close the point?
    Easier on the bore.

    In the book Monster Hunters International by Larry Correia, they put a silver bead into a large hollow point and sealed it up. The mushrooming of the HP would eject the silver to do it's thing on werewolves.

    I think you all have WAY too much time on your hands... Now get back to casting! J/k... I would probably buy a few as a novelty, but would never spend time making them...

    Really. If I ever saw a werewolf, I wouldn't worry about killing it, would just hope I woke up before it killed me.
    Some are pretty cool and would probably buy the Make my Day one to put on a chain around my neck. If I wore a neck chain. Which I don't.
    If a man has nothing greater to believe in than himself, he is a very lonely man.

    Wink Where wolves?

    You can't kill werewolves.
    Especially in Kalifornia, anyway. I think they have a law against it.
    The greenies, the tree huggers, and PETA would stop you even if they don't.
    Besides, have YOU ever seen one?
    Just like Bigfoot, they are never seen by anyone you know, but always talked about being there!
    I think they are only in London, or at least that is what the song says.......

    And then there would be the garlic-based lube for those big grooves.......

    Wally, in our State that's for sure! Werewolves and Vampires too! Sucking the blood right out of us. By the way--do they still have a big picnic at the Arlington Legion on the 4th of July? For a while, a few decades ago, I used to live in Shaftsbury and frequented that Legion quite a bit.

    Great artwork, but no Christopher Lee?

    chucker, it's a fairly active Post (69), but like many, qualified membership is shrinking a bit. Still have the clam bake.

    I think that there may be some changes in Montpeculiar after the mid-term elections. One can only hope. My property taxes were $7,300 for 6 acres.

    Now, THAT is SCARY! A lead bullet will cure that kind of madness!
    At least, that's what Thomas Jefferson, and a few of the other founding fathers, said.

    Back in the 60's Jack Lewis had an article in GUNS magazine about this. They did the lone Ranger route and tested the bullets in a SAA. They ended up turning the bullets as it took too much heat to fill on a standard mould and accuracy wasn't very good.

    BY the way I think Jack is still alive he was an Ex Marine and a script writer in addition to being a GUNS regular. I can't remember his partners name off hand but they did some crazy stuff I don't think you could get published today.

    I just had a picture of smelting silver.

    That would be some Tinsel Fairy!

    A good part of our woes derive from a State Supreme Court whose quality is that of a bad traffic court in Albania. They strive for Equality of Result. The Leftislature takes care of the rest.

    i think if one was worried about wherewolves he would be better of befriending chuck norris, much more leathal than a silver bullet.

    I was attacked by a werewolf, Chuch Norris did a roundhouse kick from the next ridge about 1000 yards away, knocked the werewolf out and skinned him at the same time...
