Dose Granger sell coatings? Maybe a nice bright Blue?

I know that Nyclad's could be had in a full wadcutter version also and assumed they were about 650 fps but never read the actual velocity.

Once I start I have to find a 225 grain HP/SWC mold for 45 cal. And that will be a whole new can of worms.

I've been using Smokes powder over on castboolits.com for several years now. A lot better than the cheap harbor freight powder, it's finer and sticks better than the larger clumper hf powders. I also never used a pc gun, always used the free/cheap #5 containers and the black airsoft bb's.

The dry powder coat powder is a polyester
The wet/paint coatings are a polyurethane

Hi quality Powder for DT or Spraying bullets
