Fosbery again...
20/08/15 01:35 PM

Just tossed a post in the 'Bore Guns' forum, but thought I should put something here too.

I have been having good success lately tossing these big slugs, and the round balls for the double-eight as well. No rejects, and no frosting or wrinkles. I have finally learned just how much heat to put into the mold with my propane torch before starting, and also to slow down a fair bit between casts. There's a lot of heat in a 1 3/4 oz slug or a 2-oz round ball, and it has to be managed a bit more carefully than for .38 pistol bullets!

Anyway, lets hope they all chew-out the ten-ring on the weekend! (Fat Chance!

)
