Re: Powder Coating Cast Bullets

G'Day Fella's,

Down here in Australia (Oz), we have been shooting commercialy produced, PC bullets since the 1990's.
Apparently, we were the ones that came up with this concept.
I have used tens of thousands, of these commercialy produced PC (mainly Handgun but also .375" rifle) bullets, so I was sold on the concept, a long time ago.

I have only in the last couple of years, been coating my own home cast 0.375" and 0.423" bullets, but with complete satisfaction, and not a hint of any bore fouling/leading.
Initally, I was coating the bullets with dry powder (via tumbling method) but of late, I have started using the same powder coating powder, disolved in Acetone. Two coats and two bakes, are required to get a good bullet coverage.

I really do need to get a proper spay gun for this job!

D'oh!
Homer
