I'm eagerly awaiting a Single-Six 32 magnum conversion from Clements Custom Guns. I'm having it built to be my main packing gun in all my wanderings, and to serve for small stuff on up to coyotes. I know beyond a doubt that within a year I'll run at least a few thousand rounds through it, and as you know, jacketed .312" bullets get right expensive to be just buring them up plinking, and such. I'm toying with the idea of casting my own bullets, but I'd like the advice of you fellows before I run out, and start spending money for stuff I either don't need, or that is completely wrong all together.
I've pretty much settled on the Saeco (single, or double cavity) .313" 95g Semi-Wadcutter as a good all around bullet. What are the bare essentials that I'll need to get started casting quality bullets with out spending a small fortune. My space is very limited, but can be ventilated reasonably well. I guess I'd have to use an electric unit because I'll be casting in my building, and have no steady heat source that'd work for this. I'm trying to figure out what I'll need to turn alloys into finished, sized, lubed bullets ready for loading.
I,m 100% open to suggestions here, but trying to get by as cheap/simple as possible with out sacraficing quality bullets.
