Signal red gave me almost same result!! same procedure but i pre-heat bullets first
You can get good results with pre-heating bullets but get it wrong, and i have plenty of times
and it clumps. I like tool blue because its coats well with out need for pre-heat, bb's.Its easy and quick, if you can get the pre-heat right most colors will work well.

loving the colours dudes!
my normal Hwksbury river cast bullets ave moved ownership an locations, more closer to me actually! bloody stoked.
I see Some of you guys use Hi tek coating??? HRCB also do, but have dropped several 'coatings' which to my understanding was different hardness.... now days only doin a Black hi tek coating which iwas told is still suited for 2000 FPS, which is all il ever pump up my 375BB too because at full power 200GR loads will shoot considerably tooo high to use. would need to adjust sights so I tailor my loads.... works great with the casts.
I find the casts are doin the same sort of job as a hornady 220gr anyway.... in an out.

Just tried at 40m as it was windy and cold but easily .5" with low charges of unique. The flat point were 1.75" groups at 100m last time I tried them also with unique.

Nope. No problem at all. Just seated to where the bullet steps down.
