Default Ready for testing

I got a new mold on Friday and managed to find time to cast a few conicals. The mold is from Accurate molds and it is a joy to use. These bullets drop easily out of the mold at right around 445.5 grains.
I lubed some of them and sized one group at .504 and another group at .501 for a couple different rifles.

This week I will test them out.

Those are some fine looking bullets.

very nice job. And a nice weight for a conical. They should be excellent shooters. What rifles do you plan shooting them out of?

The .504s I will shoot out of one of my white rifles and the .501s will fit an mk 85 just about right. I have my great neices b-day party to attend or I'd be out their trying them now.
