 Looks good, bet it's hard though, to keep the temp consistent on those little molds..?  Looks like the .456 old army bullet, is it a solid base?   J

Looks good Marvin!  Have you tested out the .251 slugs?  Do you still have the Condor?

[melloroadman]

Have not tested the bullets . That Condor is not going any were as far as I know and these bullets are for it . It saves me a lot of lead and air during the summer . I do like the big bores for sure but that Condor gets a lot of use . Had thought about twisting arms and getting a big bore kit for a condor but I packed up my 909 , and 201S , and sent them to a tuner yesterday instead . Marvin

I hear you.  My .25 Condors get the most use out of all my airguns.  Probably 70% .25 Condors, 30% all others, although I will shoot 100 pellets in one session with a Springer, where with the Condors I usually shoot 32 (Phillips pellet holder 16 x 2) and then refill and put it away. 

Those pellet holders are great because they let me know exactly when to stop shooting and refill.  They each hold 16 .25cal pellets, so I usually replenish it a 2nd time and shoot another 16 for 32 total and I know exactly what the velocity and FPE are down to at that point, and that's it time to refill. Before the Phillips holder I would lose count almost every time and had to run to the Chrony a lot
Please let us know how they shoot out of your Condor.  I wonder how much expansion they can get through flesh and bone
