Big Joe,

You got good advice from prior posters.

I cast my .44 Magnum bullets out of wheelweights with some tin added and quench them by dropping them from the mould into a bucket of water. Quenching doubles the Brinell hardness of bullets just dropped from the mould, according to the Lyman Cast Bullet Handbook. I lube with Aalox and shoot hot loads and get no leading.

Adam
