I don't, but I was thinking about it for reloading .45 Long Colt.Drummerob said:back when... we use to melt down 3-4 ounce sinkers to make smaller ones, but, the sinker prices are outrageous now. I want to try some home made muzzleloader bullets and just trying to find some lead.
Does anyone around here cast bullets for muzzleloading?
I have a steel frame Pietta reproduction 1858 Remington cap & ball revovler with a R&D conversion cylinder in it.Dukesdad said:I reload my own for the 45 LC and have found that I can buy precast from midway for a low enough price to stop casting. What type of 45 do you ave. I bought an EMF hartford premier and it is sweet!
Actually I tried BP, Pyrodex and smokeless. The BP and Pyrodex was just for fun, but the BP is probably what beat up the one Pietta in the end. I loaded up with about 40 grs of BP in the cases I toyed with and they had an amazing kick.Dukesdad said:so you are loading the brass with black powder or pyrodex or something?
