I just started casting my own bullets and it seems to be going great. At this point I'm using a 9mm Lee tumble lube 124g LRN mold and a 4-20 pot.
Ive got buckets of indoor range lead. I shouldn't be finding brass jackets but I'm finding tons. What would you think the hardness level is and would I be wrong that the mix is as good as it gets or should I be adding something to the alloy? Thanks a lot in advance. Oh yeah the second question is should I or shouldn't I water quench my bullets?? And lastly....If my casts bullets come out at a perfect .356 can I just forget about a sizing die?
Again thanks.
