It has taken me a few months and a trip back to Tom but she's finally drilling holes. The 142 grain hp from Nick are amazing. I refilled to 3000psi for 5 shots at 50 yards. May be going for NUAH sooner than I thought. lol
Boy that's a good looking shiny one there. I forgot to bring the FP-10 lube along on my range trip today. It may have made a difference with the .358 diameter slugs Gonna try lubing them next trip. Some would do well and some would scatter. I did notice some were harder to load than others.

Never trust as cast. as sizes change with small differences in both pot temp, and pressure when casting and pouring, and mold temp swings. Ladle or dipper. Even tiny changes mean differences in accuracy, velocity, and loading resistance. I use FP-10 on al pellets. If you remember, or not. I was the first person to ever test FP-10 on pellets. I was given a quart by US Army testers long before it had the name FP-1. I use it to this day, and highly indorse it. However I have found that RC shock oil in 10 weight does better on bullets. In a polished bore, 200-300 before a cleaning is normal. I order it from amazon or the bay. Maker, Lucas Oil.
I hope the accuracy oil isn't like snake oil... I ordered up some too.
Ive tryed a few oils and by far the cheapest route I have found is a drop or two of 2 stroke synthetic oil.A drop will lube a lot of rounds.Its cut cleaning time by half and Im good for a few hundred rounds!.Puts a very thin film on the bullets
