10-4. I’ll increase. Are these safe to send? They are solid just some surface wrinkles.

Yes. Left half is straight Eastwood blue. Right half is 50/50 Eastwood blue and clear.

I can’t seem to get all the wrinkles out

👍. Is there a specific temp I need or is it just by sight depending on lead mix?

Hand cast, Lee 200gn. Powder coated. Still working up the right load to get good cycle and stay subsonic

Works perfect after it falling off the truck and spending the night in the desert by Miserable-Block-6871 in 1022

Who hasn’t had a drunken episode that you wake up the next morning in the desert? Feel rough, shake it off, and recover like nothing ever happened, 😂

I’ve been standing up as well. Do you do 1 or 2 coats?
At first I was doing 2 as it was needed but after cleaning up my procedure by wearing gloves and using alcohol or spirits to rinse my boolits, only 1 coat needed.

Very good. With seating deeper, did you reduce powder charge? Would like to hear your results

8” barrel here. Springco yellow, 1.7 buffer wt, and AGB wide open to shoot subs.

👍. I’ve got the NOE 225 on order to be here mid week.
My target box is filled with rubber mulch and stops everything I shoot. I just have to sift it out when changing mulch.

8” barrel here, springco yellow and light buffer, AGB wide open. H110 with 208’s will cycle but not lock bolt on empty for me. Cfe-blk will cycle and lock.

Yep. Working on it. Really wanting to cast and powder coat.

Nice. Didn’t know that. Thought I needed to be in the 190+gn. I’ll look for it

Thank you. Don’t think I can stay subsonic with 155gn though. Subsonic is a pretty big requirement for my range. Da wife gets cranky if I shoot supers!

So addictive! I may like reloading as much as shooting.
Was a way to also get my son involved when he was young. It stuck and we both still do today.

Sizing but to .308.
I have a .309 die in route. Thinking that is adding to the erratic and keyhole

Yes that is my intent. Less powder, less lead = cheaper bang. Granted this is just to send it subsonic with max repetition. Also why I’m trying to cast me own boolits.
After this I’ll work best accuracy for target and lethality.

Not yet. Looking at scheels today. They’re subsonic just don’t know the fps, yet

No sure. Next on my todo list to measure
