I have a question for you guys who cast your own bullets. Today I finally decided to give it a try. I have the mold from Lee for 125 gr 9mm bullets. Its the two cavity mold. I used wheel weights. I followed the direction for warming the mold and poured the lead into the mold cavity. Most of the bullets looked ok.Some were pretty shiney and some had the frosted look that I've heard mentioned by other people. Some I need to melt down a give it another shot. What my question it, is why none of the bullets weigh 125 grs. I have 20, and the weights vary from 112 gr to 119 gr. The mold was filled all the way. Is the kind of lead that I'm using incorrect? If so, what should I be using?
Thanks for your input.
