has anyone done any tests on the accuracy of slightly flawed cast bullets? I know it is no big deal to recycle them thru the lead pot and just make perfect bullets, just curious if anyone has tested blems for accuracy. These are being powder coated.
I know Dick casts thousands of HP bullets so will be interested to see if he knows.
thanks in advance


Tips not filling out is a heat issue, you may, need to run that new mold a little bit before they flow with a even fill.
