stone mountain arms silver eagle
« on: October 12, 2003, 08:32:18 AM »
Does anyone else own one of these, if so do you like it? Mine is a .50 cal with a plastic stock,appears to be nickle plated after sandblasting to give it a matte finish, it;s been a few years since it,s been out , but I recently acquired a lee R.E.A.L. mold going to try them out soon, any suggestions?
   I,ve read some of your replies about the lee bullet so I hope they perform well for me as some of you have experienced, if not the mold also throws .490 roundballs!
  This is my first post, I've been lurking for a few weeks,reading some of the old posts there is lot's of info here at Graybeards!

Actualy I got mine several years ago '5' maybe?...from my Dad.At the time I shot some roundball's through it it wasn't too bad accuracy wise well couple of years ago I got the lee mold for casting both I just hadn't taken either one out of the safe till recently.
   Last  Saturday I cast about 50 of each with some lead pipe flashing that a roofer friend  gave to me, it seems pretty soft so it should do well.
