WOW, that looks like fun and you can make your own custom size and weight. Can you make a parts list of the tools you use?

I know what's in the last 2 pictures but where you bought the molds a link would be nice. Thanks for clarifyingHeavy.

928487381,
Could you please explain your target.
Did you shoot one ( the high shot ) then aimed at that hole and shot a three shot group low left? Then drew the target after taking the pic?
In any case the three shot group at that range is exceptional. What rifle did you use and what power was the scope set on?
You are in China? I am in Australia. How do I contact the manufacturer of the dies? Does Paypal operate in China?
Kind regards, Harry/Yrrah.

I know my mind gets rolling when I think of the “control” & accuracy potential of making my own pellets, but then reality hits and the questions get rolling: quality of dies, legalities of use in world competition, I’m I going to spend $300.00 to get no better accuracy? And then the health issues of dealing w/lead vapor/absorbition etc.,time contraints?, now Corbin mfg. “high quality stuff” has had a pellet swaging die kit for yrs. using a loading/arbor (centerfire) press or (Buy their press) for years but time consuming again?, I think the large cal. Long distance guys have been doing this for yrs?, PLEASE CHIME IN....

To each his own in this one. In wood working, there are some that take the greatest enjoyment in the sharpening of the tools, not necessarily the building of the item. I worked in the oil and gas industry for a while, and there's an old saying. There comes a time in the life of every gas and oil field where you have to shot the Chief Engineer and put the field into production. Engineers like the building, bosses want it producing
So, while I won't do my own pellets, some people will get enjoyment from the casting their own. If you enjoy it, do it. I for one don't enjoy that stuff, so I'll just buy my pellets. Everyone should be happy.

Looks like an interesting concept, but also seems very time consuming. When you can get a tin of pellet For $10 to $15, I just don't have the time.

I would only do this for one reason “ACCURACY” because right now I’m not finding what I need from a tin!, for my competition guns anyway...

Many thanks for your response and explanation. Please continue to enjoy your shooting and to experiment. That was a wonderful group and should motivate you to keep experimenting with your excellent rifle. Again thank you and Best regards, Harry (Down Under).

Hello. I didn’t know that we had anyone on the forum from China. My wife is Chinese. She came to the US 3.5 years ago. My wife grew up in Hezhou and went to school in Nanning. Where in China are you located?
