Default RE: Casting Bullets

Different allows of lead will also give you slightly different dimensions and weights. The purer the lead, the heavier the bullet.

Lyman moulds unless they are described otherwise cut their moulds to make a bullet of their stated dimension using Number 2 alloy. Lee moulds are based off either Wheel weights or pure lead, I can't remmeber which.
