i was casting yesterday and got lube in the cavity
i put paper into the cavity and cast....just to see if that cleaned it...it did
then dropped them back into the pot and smoked the mold over the pot
then got the idea to ''clamp'' a paper towel into the mold...and got to thinking..[dangerous]
decided to try phone book paper...rather than paper towel
held it only in the front half of the bullet.....so the base wouldn't split
i took one and squeezed with pliers....the nose forked nicely
i have not shot any yet
HAS ANY ONE ELSE?
i think i read something about it some where years ago
[BTW this is with a 158 swc for 38 spl]
