Poured some lead today.....

[cmh]

Here in central Indiana it’s been unseasonably warm so decided to fire up my lead pot today and pour some...... Poured five different molds today.
1) Mihec 314 with penta HP
2) Ideal 358156
3) Ideal 429244
4)Lyman 429650
5) Mountain Mold 432 300
Mold number 1 is intended for my 6” GP100 along with 13.3gr of H110 in brand new Starline 327 brass. Mold number 2 is for my old model 357 as I’ve been shooting it a bit. Mold number 3 is a single hole but poured a 100 for my SBH’s. Mold number 4 and 5 are two I haven’t loaded yet. Both are right around 300 gr bullets and I want to try them out in both my Super Blackhawk and my Super Redhawk. Would appreciate any insight into loads for both of them. A pic of all five and that Mountain Mold 300 by itself...... curious to see how it shoots!!

Make me look bad!



I cast a whole lot in September, October getting ready for my elk hunt. I haven't cast a bullet since early November. I NEED to get off my butt & cast some. But you are right,, the warm weather this time of year is ideal!

Those look good right there!

Nice looking bullets, crisp, sharp edges & well filled out. What is your alloy?

It was a good day to do so. I’m anxious to see what that Mihec penta hp does on coyotes.......

It will tear them up. Here’s a 360-640 recover after going through 3 gallon water jugs. Muzzle velocity was 1240fps out of my SP101.
