Haven’t casted in years. Lewis is making itch to get back in it. Especially with my Scheutzen.
Acquired a LBT mold from Veral in 98.
Need to be warming it ip again. 8.15x 46r.
And sorry, don’t mean to hijack the thread /post. View attachment 12419View attachment 12420
Lewis, You’d love the sights on this fine piece. It’s a Sempert- Krieghoff. Made 1924. Ambidextrous bbuttstock.
Front sight has four rotating different posts. Adjusted with a key.
Very difficult to find WWII bring backs that have the rear peep.
Usually kept separate from the rifle .
Please do. I would love to see more of it.Have other pics. Should I start a new post? As to stay the course?
Other than bronze or steel wool is there any “ availability “ method to get ALL of the leading out of a barrel ?I was just gonna say that I too only use one hole in the multiple cavity molds that I own. I can concentrate on better bullets. I've seen lots of pistol shooters go thru the motion of multiple casting then running the bullets thru a lube sizer and turn out some crappy bullets. Why waste the time? On the other side though, when I bought my very first mould from Paul Jones I had been shooting some REAL crappy bullets that I had bought. 10 gr over and under in a 540 gr bullet. I was new to BPCR and had no experience at all other than what I read. My 100 yd targets had 7" to 10" groups and I was going crazy with a new $4500.00 rifle. Paul told me that even being 10 gr off those bullets should shoot 1 hole at 100 yds. Then he asked me what size were they? Now I was learning about exact bullet to bore/groove size and leading up a barrel. With his help I learned that the only time I size a bullet is when I need the bullet to be a specific size. Other wise I shoot as cast. I also learned how to de-lead a barrel, ha!
