Re: ShootzenFest casting session today, gotta get ready.....
LOL Henry, it was not a full mag, and it was still well worth it.. when I had the initial trigger problem, my "oh crap" index notched up a bit, so I needed to see it work good to get the anxiety level down.. Between your lower and my upper, I didn't want there to be any serious issues.. The first magazine dump made all those worries go away..
I figured that the best test for the upper was the "factory ammo" so don't fret it, I had a great time, and the conversion over to the 5.45x39 was just as fun. No worries here.
If you're still feeling guilty, I'll get you to help me find a good deal on a 9mm can for it.. its about time for a few stamps! Hanging around that crowd makes my tastes and preferences get more expensive.
But I can tell you, if I can find a cast lead bullet that feeds, instead of $30(for 50) boxes of 240 Gr SMK's. I'll be able to enjoy a LOT more mag dumps with the cast. Especially if I can find a bit of a free or scrap-priced lead supply - wheel weights, lino-type, etc.
So I put the cart before the horse.. If there are any molds left after that group buy, I'm trying to get one, and will work into casting and reloading over time.
