    does powder coating slow big bore ammo down

    So ironic that I showed my ignorance to this implementation of powder coating and a week later ZAN releases powder coated slugs. 🤣 I've messed around with HBN, but haven't committed the time to really utilize it.

    I tried moly coating once. My hands got black from handling the bullets. HBN is a white powder, and is used in some cosmetic products, like lipstick, lotions, creams and shampoos to impart a feeling of slickness. It is non toxic,

    Just go to youtube and search for "powder coating bullets". I watched several videos, modified the techniques to my liking, and started the process. I'm currently in the testing phase.

    This has been debated over and over, but wanted to get your opinion on the powder coating. Benefit for air guns? I know folks talk about less lead dust, etc... but that makes zero difference to me. Great looking little pills there, by the way!

    does powder coating slow big bore ammo down

    ...and be difficult to clean off. The rifling is designed to cut into the lead in on projectile, therefore your "resistance" is still lead, not powder coating. Typically you want about a thousandth of contact, so the powder coating alone would be counter intuitive to diameter consistency.

    Looks like Sonny Slugs is getting into Powder Coating

    There is only one way to find out John! Looks like I'm the lone ranger commercially when it comes to powder coating hand casts at the moment. I'm curious on the build-up on smaller calibers. Will probably try .252 tomorrow.
