Those look great, I hope to get the molds from Tom at Accurate Molds soon that I based the design off of the SSK samples you sent me.

Those look great. "Marathon." Every time it's time to quit, it seems like I can do no wrong with the mould(s) I'm working with and bullets just keep falling out perfectly. I think sometimes that I cast more and better bullets in the 15 minutes I run over than in the hour or two I allotted to cast to begin with.

Beautiful little jewels as always, boatswainsmate. Will you powder coat to bring that diameter up to...?

How many thousandths are you getting from the powder coating process?

How many thousandths are you getting from the powder coating process? I'm not sure. I don't keep track. When my 50 cal ammo gets low I make more to fill it up again.

Not touusands.
Thousandths.
Thousandths of an inch.
If you start with a bullet measuring 0.451" in diameter, how many thousandths of an inch bigger is that bullet after powder coating?
