Morning y'all..
I was shooting the .25 AV Avenger yesterday and noticed my supply of pellets getting low. So today the plan is to pour up some more.
Some time back I did a video on how I cast my pellets and put it on YouTube. I thought I might share that video with y'all this morning.
In the video I was casting with a .22 2 cavity mold. Today I'll be running my .25 4 cavity mold.
Anyways... get the popcorn, here's my video.

Since that video I moved from Casting Corner in my shop to the Castin Shack. It's a much cleaner space where me and my 2 buddies can hang out.
Rambo (the black lab/pit) passed away last year and I miss him daily as does Boss (the American Bulldog)

Did a bit of reorganizing in the Castin' Shack since those pics so I thought I would share some recent pics while things are coming up to temp. Now I can sit while I'm casting, culling and sizing. Just makes things easier on the 
old man.

I can blow though 6 12 shot mags per full fill with the tune I have on the Avenger so a couple hundred pellets don't last too long.
I can put out a couple hundred pellets per hour with my casting set up and the 4 cav mold.

The fill fitting on one of my huben regs has been the bane of my existence. I’ve tried a few I purchased from Amazon and they all end up leaking. I’ve tried different size o rings. I can’t get anything to work

Started working on some custom foam for my Karma EQ hardcase. The case comes with cut foam, but I needs to start from scratch in order to make it work with my Zulus and also make a spot for my Moderator, magazines, etc. so here is my first attempt, not too bad! At some point after I get it all dialed in, I will use some spray adhesive to make it more permanent.

Local group puts on a youth pheasant hunt. My son and some of his friends are shooting, so volunteered to bring some airguns. They have a 22 lr portion for some plinking fun, and now we have some airguns.

I haven’t shot them yet. I just got the mold last week and finally tried it out yesterday. I’m hoping they shoot well out of my standard Challenger 24”. After I did my preliminary sort, I ended up with 240 of them for an hours work. I’ll get them washed and lubed today. I’m thinking of using the same 10w silicone oil as I use on slugs. Anything else I should try instead?

Lower Alabama? I’m in Eight Mile. When it cools off enough to shoot in the afternoons (with a fan and a big umbrella), the showers and thunderstorms roll in. Made it out today to get an hour of practice in with the DRS Tactical .25. I cut my deck railing down for my built in bench.

Looks great.
I was able to shoot a good bit today. I would shoot awhile then duck into the shop or the house to cool off then go back out and shoot some more. I run the compressors in the a/c in the shop so filling guns also gives me a break from the heat. A least the temps are dropping some. We may be over the hump.

I fill from my tank so no breaks from the heat to refill my AR, the tank usually lasts a week then gets topped off inside. Even inside, I run the compressed air through a couple of moisture absorption filters to ensure no moisture makes it into the tank and then my AR. If I stopped shooting to refill my AR with the compressor, I’d probably get distracted and end up taking another nap.
