Ahh fresh cast 56-50 bullets...
« on: October 07, 2007, 09:14:33 PM »
Dropping right at about .513", which would make it a 'bore rider' in some books.

I have found that resizine to .512" is simply an extra step I don't need to fight with these days.

Anyhow, here is some eye candy... (nice and shiny!!!)



I got about 100 cast today along with some other stuff...

Went through about 10lb of lead REAL fast.

hehe...

Sorry about the photo problems... my web server was asking fickle.

I need to move it all to faster hardware. (hackers like to play tricks on older versions of Apache)

Anyhow, I got about 100 of those cast now. I am going to try and replicate the 42rd cartridge boxes. (well, a pair of them)

If I recall correctly, it was 6 rows of 7 shells. Each 7 were held in a paper box, and then 6 boxes were cased together in cardboard.

I have four of my own 25rd shell boxes I made. (still need to make the separators)

If it were not so much for shipping and I being such a slow caster, I would sell these... NOT!!!
