[QUOTE="BadgerLB, post: 841867, member: 7145"] Thanks Nikat... Do you put anything in the grooves on the cast? Or do you just pan lube and call it good? I remember growing up, my dad had several cast bullets that had a thick grease in the grooves...I know it's lube, but I don't know if pan lubing will suffice for a final product or if I need something a little more robust.... You're also right, unless I can find free lead I don't plan on saving much more money than buying casts from J&K... but its also kind of a hobby. soo... if I spent 50 bucks for 50 lbs of lead and I get to spend 50 hours casting thats pretty cheap entertainment... and there's the fact that I end up with about 2800 bullets (2700 if there are a bunch of impurities I'm sure.)... Again, thanks for the advice though, Anyone else wanna chime in? :) [/QUOTE]
