Cooked these up this afternoon. Pic tells the story. Cooked for 25 minutes at about 375+ or -. The batch on the left is mostly Eastwood Mirror Blue with a bit of mixed leftovers.

Geez, here I was thinking that this thread was going to be about you complaining about some new "politically correct" job you had to get!

Turns out, it's about some boolits that have been painted Farmall blue, 351 Cleveland blue & 351 Windsor blue.

Sheesh!



Time to get out & shoot them.

I will when it warms up!

bullets look really good OP, what mold are you using?

I think it was a LYMAN. Not exactly sure. I can't seem to find the mold. They are just a touch over 175gr.

I ran 50 of the 100 Emerald Tool Blue through the .309 LEE sizer after PC'ing. I will try to remember to do an "accuracy" comparison with my treasured NAACO Model 90D 30-06 - when it warms up!

Have you tried a hammer/smash test to see how well it stuck? Those look beautiful.
