Skinny,

I have no leading with my cast bullets. I use old wheelweights and a dash of tin per pot and drop the bullets from the mould into a bucket of water. I lube with Alox.

I have found half-grain increments worked for me when beginning with the Starting Load. NONE of my accuracy loads are Maximum, so half grains worked ok. I usually tweeked the load up or down a few tenths of a grain once I get nice groups and reliable functioning in the 1911s.

Adam
