Well it's either been dark when I get home from work or the weather sucks when I'm off, so I've been casting a few bullets some new some old and doing some powder coating for when I can get out and do some shooting. Here are some of what I've been doing.

NOE 359 / 155 gr. clone of the Lyman /Ray Thompson 358156 HP I'm going to use the Carolina Blue for 357 Mag. loads and the Yellow Green for 38+P loads.

NOE 452 / 220 gr. Cup Points the mold also cast HP's as well as FN bullets, I did these in OD Green and Yellow Green for the Hi Point Carbine

Accurate 215 gr. .314" FN bullet I had cut for my deep throated 91/30 I coated these with Smokes Clear Gloss PC.

Lee 185 gr. RN for my Mosin and SKS rifles. L to R Smokes Clear Gloss, Eastwood Med. Green. Smokes Carolina Blue and Eastwood Maroon Red for my Mosin and SKS rifles.
