I am interested in giving casting a try for 300 blackout sub ammo.
at the moment all I have is ten pounds of range scrap that I melted in a old cast iron skillet and cleaned thoroughly.
I have an ingot mold on the way and I believe all I should need is a furnace a mold for the bullets, powder coat and a sizer.
Any recommendations? I was looking at the basic Lee bottom pour pot, which holds 20#. I haven’t settled on a bullet mold either.
I saw many videos on the lee double 30 BO 230 gr, but folks seemed to have issues with getting good pours and tumbling issues when being shot. From a price standpoint it seems like a good mold to start with, but I don’t know what I don’t know.
any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
