It just occurred to me that the bullets I made for load dev on my new revolver yesterday cost me nothing except powdercoat as they were made from 100% range scrap I had collected on my last few club shoots and the melting pot and powder coating oven were both running off solar. That means they cost an almost incalculably small amount in powder.

I got a new to me pair of moulds on saturday and inclusive of mould degreasing, handle assembly and smoking I had a batch of roughly 100 of each powder coated and ready for sizing at 5pm and everything packed away from a cold start at 1:30. I find bullet making quite relaxing and now that I can do some of it for damn near free I'm extra chuffed.

So I have been missing for a while from the forum only cos I'm too caught up at work or with kids and then any free time I spend at the press reloading which is my destresser.

So I have been also visiting the range more often now cos I can but feel like reloading and using CMJs cant be my only option with a glock.... Not sure if the internet is just making me paranoid but feel like too many people advise against lead but I also found out that polymer coated bullets are an option

Does anyone have experience using polymer coated bullets through a glock and can advise if it's a no go? or will it be worthwhile as a cheaper option to reload and enjoy more shooting time

Any experience with the different brands on the market that are polymer coated bullets? Or tips and tricks to using polymer coated bullets?]]> Cast Bullet Coatings ARK https://systemz.online/cast-bullet-coatings/polymer-coated-bullets https://systemz.online/cast-bullet-coatings/paper-wrapping-bullets Wed, 08 Jun 2022 01:06:11 +0000
A paper patched bullet was and is used on lead cast bullets to act as a sort of jacket. served the same function as a metal jacket. It helped the bullet to engage the rifling without the bullet touching the rifling. This helped to prevent leading and allowed higher velocities.]]> Cast Bullet Coatings Tripodmvr https://systemz.online/cast-bullet-coatings/paper-wrapping-bullets
