For us newer bullet makers, can you explain this? Or is this some super secret project you are working on? More specifically what I am asking is, are there other ways for me to make bullets other than the "VERY SPECIFIC" steps I have been told to follow? |

Not an exact temp. to use due to varying hardness from lot to lot of jackets. Method I came up with is in oven with argon or nitrogen pressure system to remove oxygen. Take 5-10 jackets start at 440* fahr. one hr. remove and allow to cool. core seat and point up if bullet length grows more than .008 from original length as a fb they are still to hard. repeat at 450 * when jackets grow to correct length run them. if bullets loose length they are to soft and will not work..

if drawn back + .008 over original length if not drawn back they will grow around + .020 over original length...
