  • @Impossibly-Possible
    @Impossibly-Possible Месяц назад +2

    ok its been 3 years how did it go? are they accurate? what choices of grain weights and bullet shapes did you go with? I am using 115 grain for practice they shoot 1 hole groups for 12.99 for 50 of them the cheapest and most accurate also, and the +p ammo is only 65 grains and 16 dollars for 26, I am thinking of using the 115 grain ones for everything, a bullet is a bullet and hollow points are the reason most people survive a shooting because the round breaks apart before doing damage or deflects on hitting something in the way or that they are wearing. I want pure penetration for LARGE very MUSCLE filled BEASTS with muscle density much higher than a man so they basically stop rounds before doing any real damage. I need something that will pass right through thick fur and muscle that is 6-15" thick and more dense than ours by many times and bones larger and heavier than ours.

    • @TheLarkinsLair
      @TheLarkinsLair  27 дней назад

      What are you trying to hunt? Sasquatch?
      To answer your question these made excellent 9mm projectiles. I have reload just shy of 10K 9mm rounds mostly with these, and shot about 5-6K of them. If you have time I think casting is a great option. BUT, if you want something to take out big game, sasquatch, or the abominable snowman, then you will need a rifle cartridge and therefore a rifle bullet. Casting for rifles is a bit harder due to the increases in pressures. Even with powder coating the projectile without a gas check on the end of the bullet the back of the bullet can come apart due to the heat and pressures in a rifle. This de-creases accuracy for precision shooting. You can solve the problem by either using a gas-check OR loading sub-sonic rifle cartridge with heavy projectiles.
      All that said I personally don't thing gas-checks are the way to go for rifle rounds. I would just purchase rifle projectiles and then re-load. Gas-checks are time consuming and a pain in the butt. There is a reason I don't have a video on them, because I don't think they are worth it. However, if you really want me to I could do some videos on casting for rifle projectiles with gas checks.

      Yes, I can find them about once a month at my local store for about $5-7 per hundred. This website (americanreloading.com/) has them for $10 per hundred (shipping and hazmat fee included in the price). So yes I can find them, but they are still stupid expensive.

      @TheLarkinsLair  2 года назад

      Just the bullet?
      I paid $1.50 per lb for the lead.
      I cast 124gn bullets so each 9mm bullet is ~2.7 cents
      For .380 at 95gn, each bullet would be 2.1 cents.
      For total cartridge costs: ruclips.net/video/qGFR11rAMGY/видео.html
      Where I got the lead: www.rmrbullets.com/shop/rmr-in-house/casting-lead-from-rmr-jacketed-bullet-cores-approximately-12-brinnel-hardness/
      Now I know a local guy who sells me the lead @ 70 cents a lb. So my prices are about half.

      You are correct these are not rounds.
      A loaded cartridge/round is a bullet, powder, case, and primer.
      But at the end of the day I didn't even buy bullets... I bought lead... and made bullets so... you are 100% correct that I did not buy 35K rounds, just enough lead to make 35K 9mm projectiles.

      Lead is 2,448.35 per ton; which is less than $2/lb. I suspect he paid less than $2000 for the lead. At this point, primers are about seven cents each. You can recycle brass about 10 times. A 1000 count box of brass should last him a few years before his barrels are worn out.
