    Airforce NSA vs. Mr.hollowpoint .457

    ......some of us are getting extreme accuracy with home made cast slugs in a variety of different mold and lubing systems..including powder coating.... If I were buying slugs I'd buy NSA for big bores.....I'm too poor to buy big bore slugs...Pure lead cost me $1.00 a pound.... So $1.00 makes me...

    N/A New prototype.

    Good job! Custom guns are way more interesting than production guns to me. Turning an idea into a finished build is far more rewarding than just buying another PCP "pellet gun". How are you planning to finish the metal parts? Anodized, powder coat, or something else? I setup an Anodizing...

    AEA Diving into "Big Bore"

    I had tried powder coating and didn't have much luck before I discovered the miracle of cleaning. Got some PC pellets back out and shot a decent group at 50. Then tried the 75 yard plate. 5 straight hits, but I couldn't see where, so I got the yellow paint and scored a perfect panda!

    Other Plastic pallet theory

    Yes Mike you are kinda correct. The industry was not looking into it but it was a side affect of us boolit caster. It is powder coat. It contains the lead and while doing so does provide a slicker less resistant surface than copper or traditional lubes allowing higher speeds to be achieved. Once...

    Air Arms Stoger X10 is very pellet sensitive....

    OK, they do look like the LEE tumble lube cast bullets. I do a lot of powder coating myself and have been able to push some of my PC'd cast bullets to 2,500 fps with no leading of the PC jacket failing when fired from my rifles.

    They are the best you can buy. Very versatile and only powder coated mechanism on the market. You can buy once and cry once! If you want cheap and something that only works part of the time there are cheaper targets out there. If you want a target that is adjustable from 12 FPE to 110 FPE and...

    ...of all, it brings the weight back, giving a much improved balance. All are anodized od green. You may find some imperfection in the powder coating, minimal if any. This is due to the fact that they have been in storage for years and, he moved business locations through the years (how they...

    Airforce Fouling shots

    I use powder coating and lube...After cleaning first shots off.Then it settles down.. Maybe trying going up a l in slug bore size..My barrel is 5.105 after lapping was .510.. So a lil more bore diameter... Your barrel has to lead to tighten up......Maybe🤔

    Umarex Anybody install the Notos plenum kit?

    I'm really quite impressed with the ebay kit now, the first series was junk, sloppy threads and horrible fit, this set is gorgeous! The fit-up was perfect, threads are polished, Ill be powder coating my set when it arrives and Ill share that with you all when its done.

    I've been powder coating for several years now but I have only seen decreased accuracy with slugs using PC. I'm shooting NSA's out of the Mav.

    Other Texan ss457 cf or bulldog 457

    Are you using soft lead to cast with? I have a bunch of wheel weights at my disposal but don't want to screw up a new barrel by using them if they are too hard. I plan on powder coating then sizing to 457

    Airforce Copper rounds

    True but that’s not the main reason for using copper bullets like a solid copper expanding hollow point, the main reason is so you don’t have to use lead, I’ve seen a study that showed small tiny microscopic particles of lead fly up to 8 inches in every direction in the wound cavity depending on...

    Best big bore slug lube for hunting

    ...clean and wax your bore .use your favorite lube.. More lubrication and a smooth non leaded bore may reduce your velocity in a big bore a little bit.. I lost 60 fps from my old rough leaded up bore,to a hand lapped.bore with powder coating slugs and lubricant. Ill take consistently over 60 fps...
