Hey - my original post was regarding the effect of powder coating on the Lee bullets I cast. I have no issues with the Lee 6 cavity moulds at all, quality wise.
Both the Lee .452 200 RNFP and the .429 RNFP I bought for CAS produced bullets that prevented the slide going into battery in my 1911s and many 44-40s would not chamber in my Piettea 44-40s.
This after sizing in Lee sizing dies for the appropriate bullet.
To be honest, I haven't yet tried 'greasers' from either design, but I will in future.
The problem would appear to be that powder coating adds a couple of thou on the bullet ogives. So far I'm not impressed with the PC fad. I think it's an ingenious solution to a non-existent problem.
I find it a PITA to keep the bullets separated and I refuse to take the time to stand them all up with tweezers.
