    FOR SALE deleate

    I always wanted one of those many years ago. Turner Kirkland had made a conical bullet mould for the .40 caliber. I thought that conical and that heavy barrel would be a fast shooting bullet for deer season. I just never pulled the trigger on putting one together. Ohio Rusty ><>

    My balls

    A cutter called a gate cutter have very sharp edges and will easily cut the spruce flush with the face of the ball. Some guys have bought small rock tumblers and tumbled their lead ball until the spruce disappears back into the ball.

    ADDING SOLDER TO LEAD FOR ROUND BALL CASTING

    Solder is mostly tin. You normally add it to unmentionable smokeless bullets to help with the filling out of the lube grooves in the mould. There is no benefit adding it to muzzleloading roundball and it will probably make the lead alot harder and would reduce expansion of the roundball.
