Guys I just got done casting about 100 bullets from a new mold so that I could allow for culling from any flaws. I only got a couple with shrinkage lines in them but I got 8 that had pin holes in the center of the base. I pour enough lead (pure lead by the way) to create a good puddle over both cavities.
Searching this some say that the sprue is too cool other say the sprue hole is too small to be able to suck the molten lead into the cavity. This bugs me that I have to cull an otherwise perfect bullet.
What say you.
