    KevinNY...I had to stop looking at the rack to steady my shot. Of course the shot was taken under 20 yards (Winchester Black Talon).

    My .45 Colt has only seen cast bullets. I have had good luck with the Lee 255 grain traditional shape with a slightly larger meplat. Eight grains of Unique works well (but is dirty). New load, as yet untried, is 6.5 grains of HP-38. No luck with HS-6.

    What was the ratio weight of wheel weight weight to tin weight that you used in casting your bullets?

    I don’t hunt, but this company’s ammo is well suited for it. I have been nothing but satisfied with their 10mm, .357sig, and 9mm +p.

    I was looking for something else and came across this pic of my best handgun buck with my .358 JDJ Contender. It is a picture of a picture but you get the idea.
