Wow great job on first time casting!!!! Hollow points can be tough....I missed a few key details when i started casting..took me a lil bit to figure it out...Give powder coating a try....its pretty easy...it helps with leading for sure...

Following this one.

I like using HBN powder for a lubricant I add some airsoft bb's to a ziplock baggie..then about 1/8 teaspoon of HBN and mix it up until all the bb's look white then add the pellets and tumble them around for a few until they have a been thoroughly coated, but not looking like they are heavily...

...lead. Some claim a velocity improvement - hard to say among other variables. I do prefer it to bare lead. Poly coating (basically powder coating) is another option that has some fans among powder burners. If you don't mind sharing your materials, times and temps for hardening and...

I too moved to just using lubalox and Johnsons paste wax mixed together and a tool that lubes and sizes simultaneously. The process for powder coat was too time intense. I do shoot powder coated mostly but buy them in bulk pre done. As for gaining velocity. A light lubing with silicone...

Having never handled a RAW air rifle. The material used for the block, is it the same as the Theobens from back when they were blued steel ( my guess ) or billet aluminum and powder coated? I do like a chassis but I much prefer wood and metal. I do prefer the chassis on the RAW then the bland...

After powder coating then size to your bore diameter... A a little lube of your choice..

In the week i cast and powder coated 12 lbs of 39 grain .225 spire points for my Airforce Condor..I always have aleast 100 lbs of cast slugs for my .510 Texan or im nervous... i have to produce my slugs to be able to shoot and practice the way i want.. Price is going up...lol $1.25lb for pure...

I have lots of .510 cast powder coated N.O.E and Accurate Moulds slugs.. 450 grain to 650 grain .5 B.C 650 grain Spire point boat tail...I have four different molds in .223 to .225 diameter.. Can be sized down to .221 diameter.. Will trade for anything pcp and optics related...

From the plastic container I sieve out excess powder coat..Then onto cookie sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil in a pile... My powder coat is 400 degrees for 12 min...Staight outta oven into water.... They separate perfectly no marks...

Good old fashioned moly powder works great. Dope up some paste wax with moly powder and wax up a a clean barrel. You can tumble your projectiles in moly/wax too. It's like Graphite in many ways. I think it's supposed to be slicker and lasts longer under high pressures. Use the wax with...

...easy. i was expecting worse. for now i have mostly used lead from recycled projectiles, so the amounts are not that much at this point. i feel powder coating makes more sense when doing it for bigger quantities, so maybe at a later point, when i make a huge batch of ammo. but thanks for the...

...came out good 👍 today Shake and bake ...13 min at400 degrees...and stait out of oven into water quench..They all separate and no marks... It's takes a minute casting and powder coating to get it perfect 😊 I cast and powder coated around 1100 slugs Today for $8.00....Pure lead cost me $1.00 a...

Awesome sounds like a good time. I’m not quite to the big bore stage yet but thanks I’ll be looking at the website

I may give the powder coat a try at some point. Will have to hit up the local thrift stores for a toaster oven.. I think I have a bag of powder here somewhere. It’s black though. I would prefer a bright color that is visible in flight. The black will do for R&D.

Hello @bsahogger That looks so good, cannot wait to see the final product (y) (y) (y) ThomasT

You could remove the shroud and moderator and have them powder coated?

...also like slick tracer bullets, i would for one, at the very least to clean my barrel with. Sort of make me a little sad i am not in powder coating anymore, if only we had another color teflon content powder than the dark grey one we had. BTW i made my own mouse pad with this vandal proof...

My initial experiments with this made me feel it wasn't worth the effort (compared to knurling). Especially since I'm using NSA's hollow point slugs. Hard to coat them without clogging up the point (or at least clogging it consistently). I'll admit I'm a novice powder coater so YMMV.
