Question

I have cast bullets with both aluminum and steel molds. I much prefer the steel ones. Aluminum conducts heat better than steel, and therefore the alum. ones take longer to heat up to casting temp, which results in more imperfect bullets to begin with. <img src="graemlins/yltype.gif" border="0" alt="[typing]" />
