Like someone else said alloy type is also a concern different alloys have different weights due to the density of the material any and all variants must be taken in to account if you are trying for the best possible accuracy. Personally I like unique or BE86 in the 38 that has given me some real...

Nice you have any chrono data with those just curious

Yeah I kind of figured. That's what I've been doing just thought I would check if anyone had found some new data Well Darn

I got some WSF at the local shop and so far I love it. I think it even does really well with coated bullets no smoke nothing The only thing is that I am have a harder time finding load data for 120 gr bullet impute would appreciated and if anyone has 120 gr load data that would be greatly...

Yea or we would end up draining it for them alright

I would imagine it did and if it didn't I would have to say something is wrong. Thanks I will have to try that.

I am planning on it but the problem I am having is figuring out how I am going to capture the bullet. Since this is going to be a task with an 06. Honestly I wouldn't be worried about if I hadn't see the results from the 357 now I just gota know. Any ideas

That is the same mix of alloy I tried over the weekend with coated 357 and they worked great with no leading. I didn't use lube or any checks, I was able to recover one of them and the coating had held up much like a jacked round. I think that the babbit mix resembles #2 in a lot of ways. the...

Personally I have a lot of Alliant powders and I have a load that I use the powder that fits that load best. I even have some of the old powders so for me its all about max performance for the bullet I am using. I do like the BE kind of like unique and bullseye so I use it for 9mm and 357 +P...

The results are in I set up the chrono had the target @ 15 yards. I decided for proof of concept I would just go for broke. for the 357mag I used 125gr RF and it hit 1990 with 22.2 gr of 300-MP accuracy was spot on grouping of 1 in to 1.5in with no leading. Now I have to say I am impressed with...

I think I have to agree with the majority get the training carry what you feel comfortable with. My self I carry either a snubby or a shield or both depending on where I am going (Yes Overkill) the shield does have a safety and I do have it combat loaded ready to go but that may do to training

Yea I am looking forward to it I have ben getting set up this evening that way I can run tomorrow I am planning on doing some 357 and 45 auto in a gun vise to see what I get threw the chrono and the accuracy on paper. After this test time to step it up o6 or 308 so lets see what happens

I think over the weekend I am going to use some of the alloy and give it a go I have some plain black pc industrial grade. I am kinda pumped to see how they shoot

I have had this happen with many different calibers as well depending on what kind of brass (brand) it could be slightly oversized if it was out of round it would fit if you turn it. I would just set it aside see if any others had the same problem

Do you resize to accommodate the added layer of the coating.

I do know the it has been in my family since 1955

I do just happen to have a powder coater in my shop that I use to coat headers ect so I could defiantly give it a go and see how it turns out. I have had good results with gas checks but the whole reason I started this experiment was every time I go to get checks I cant find them then when I go...

Oh believe me I am going to try it for sure and I am all for it. What kind of coating are you using brand how much and how do you go about the application. any help is appreciated and so forth

The non accuracy could be a result of bullet size design and or hardness. possibly not enough material to grip the lands and groves. But if say the coating was .001 thick and the cast was .001 over giving you a .002 oversize properly sealing the bore the accuracy should improve in theory

The serial # 1343 and the frame is alloy. Maybe this pic helps sorry not a great photo
