Sorted a partial bucket of COWW and SOWW, did not find much in the way of Fe or Zn weights. :)
Got any quick tips for sorting? I've got two 2/3+ full 5gal buckets to sort, and been dreading it. Anything to make excluding non-lead pieces would be appreciated.Quote:

be careful of detonation if you're going to do extremely reduced loads.Quote:

Got the PID controller setup on my Lee pot, and it is sweet, keeps the temp in 4 degree range and I know what the temp drops down to when I add lead now and when it is ready to cast again, no guess work any more and less culls :)
Cast and sized a pile of .358 170gr Keith Style SWCs
Next is a pile of .430 Keith Style SWCs
You going to powder coat or lube?Quote:
