Okay, I'm what you call a seeker of aesthetically pleasing firearms and ammuntion. I have a MN 91/30 that I shoot regularly, and I've been reloading without a hitch.... however, I'm wondering if A, there are nickel plated 7.62x54R cases available, and B, if there are 7.62 bullets available in a silver color... or perhaps black w/plastic tip as in Nosler Ballistic Silvertip...
Also, are there any bullet molds for 7.62? This next part is for display only, but I'd really like to cast a few solid silver bullets and load them into dummy cases (preferably also nickel plated) for display. Is this possible or will I have problems with casting silver in a mold designed for lead? Since they have the same approximate mass...
