[QUOTE="Ahall, post: 3751507, member: 49426"] That I got shape is typical of Babbitt, a lead alloy used for bearings you need a way to verify the hardness before running it through a gun too hard or soft and you will have issues molds are a challenge to make. buy them if you can you are time and money ahead do your homework before investing in cast lead for some things it makes sense For others it does not the start up cost is steep, just like a reloading press and dies. then you keep playing and adding [/QUOTE]
