How many bullets are here??? Pics

[blacksmithden]

So, what did you do while you were supposed to be cleaning the garage???

I knocked all of these guys off with a SINGLE CAVITY MOLD over the past couple of days. They are .310 to .311 out of the mold, 180 grain round nose.

The challenge. Guess how many bullets are in that pile LOL !!!! The winner gets 3 dancing bananas !!!!! Yippie!!!!!

I should note. If anybody is looking for 30 cal gas checks in Edmonton, P&D had a few boxes on Saturday. $34.00 per 1000. As far as I know, thats the only place you will find them in the Edmonton area right now.

Anyway.........Whats your best guess....and yes I counted them. Ill post the answer tomorrow.

I say 2000 rounds in the pic. I really did clean my garage yesterday....no fun, but I found some containers, I can use for my reloading room!

I'll say 940 pcs, I just finished casting up 460 bullets myself. single cavity lyman it took two and a half hours.
(only got a couple frosty ones from going too fast)

Now to gas check them and lubrisize them in my lyman 450, should take another 2 hours I estimate.

[Busta Capp]

1650?

 

[Smokey]

1536 ......give or take a few

 

[GunBoy]

1400 would be max!

 

[blacksmithden]

1650?

What are you doing, actually counting them or just reading my mind!!!!???!!!!! LOL!!!!

Busta Capp is our winner!!!!

The actual count is 1669 in the picture. Out of that batch, I had 19 rejects, so I wound up with 1650 exactly. Now to lube/size/gas check/relube. It's a lot of hand work, but hey, I'll have a years worth of shooting the exact same bullet from the exact same mold. If I can't work out a load with that many, there's no hope

For guessing the EXACT amount that I wound up with (not exactly what's in the pic, but hell, close enough!!!) you get an extra

Good eye man. You can count inventory for me ANYTIME LOL!!!!

What'd they come out to for weight? I made up 32.5 lbs of that exact same bullet over the weekend in a double cavity mold. According to google, that should be around 1244 bullets. I really don't feel like counting them out to be sure.
