Handgun bullet casting for fun and profit!

The Christmas cards have all been sent and my shopping is all done for this year, so I got out the Coleman Stove and a few handgun moulds. Off to the tractor shed and casting on the bed of the haywagon therein. I like casting good handgun bullets. I quench all bullets by dropping them from the mould into a bucket of water. I get NO leading and great penetration with all handguns. I make HARD Pennsylvania Bullets.

The Lyman Cast Bullet Handbook correctly says that cast bullets in handguns will do all a handgunner needs to do without buying expensive jacketed bullets. I cast all my handgun bullets. If you do not yet do so, give the Lyman Handbook and casting a try. You will NOT save money; just shoot more.
