That looks like a box of FUN! Expensive fun, but fun none the less. How do they shoot? Is there a lot of slag to clean off or is this straight out of the mold?

Pretty much strait out of mold. They shoot great these are around 110grain. When you get every thing set up they go quick. They are cheap if you make them your self and have a good source of cheap lead. Pennies a piece.

I have a mold and furnace and used to make my slugs when I had a Career Ultra. I have another 35 cal but have just been shooting JSB pellets in it. FunGun making slugs are a LOT cheaper than buying pellets. I still have over 100lbs of lead and I'm still waiting to see how the diabolo style pellets from the molds made by jkingsouthafrica performs so I might buy a mold.

Shot about 100 of these today through the bulldog 2inch groups or less at 60 yards. As good or about as good as I was doing with the JSB pellet. Had a buddy give me about 30lbs of lead so looks like I will be makeing a bunch more. May try to size some to see if accuracy gets any better. These were just strait out of mold with a little title shot of ballistal for lube.

I make my own slayer bullets, both will do about 1" in the wind at 100. Overall, the HP will do almost hole in hole at 50 and out groups the mold used to make my own hunter supply 127g (which are twice more uniform than what you can buy) well out past 250 yards. Haven't shot further cause have yet to see a low wind day since I got the gun

Getting ready to make my own .25 caliber pellets should start this weekend. My process is going to be making my own mould to cast a blank that I will then swage to final weight and dimension. The swaged pellet will have a trunicated nose and dished base and I will be aiming for a 30 to 35 grain weight with the ability to adjust the weight precisely to get the desired weight and o.a.l.. Will try to post pics when I get tools going.

I am going to try .250 diameter first, testing in an Air Ranger. The barrel is supposed to be .248 and .254 diameter land and groove so we shall see!

Yes, I do. I have been designing bullets and having molds cut by NOE and Accurate molds for 3 yrs. now. along with stock molds from NOE I now have 59 molds for .220 38 gr. bullets up to .510 580 gr. bullets. Many of then are hollow point and a couple of them I have set up with aluminum ballistic tips. I am a manufacture and I wholesale to AOA ans R&L only. I have a day job that takes up most of my time so I have not gone into full production. Lately Kip from AOA and I have put or heads together and designer several .308 ,.357 and .452 molds that preform great even at ranges over 100 yds. I design bullets for accuracy and performance. Performance meaning How well they open in animals and provide a quick and ethical kill. I can cast and size most of my molds with lead free alloy. If anyone out there is looking for a specific cal. weight and design let me know. I will see if I have it or if it sounds good I may have a mold made.
