Nice looking boolits. I thought at first they were the 221 clone like I have.

Every shot you get in life counts

Nice looking bullets. Only thing is those small GCs drive old fumbly fingers and poor eyesight nuts./beagle

diplomacy is being able to say, "nice doggie" until you find a big rock.....

NOE sells a tool to help those of us with "fumbly fingers and poor eyesight"; I use one and it works well.

I use surgical gloves with small calibers like this, especially when seating checks and bullets

I use that same mold for .223 in my S&W mp15, I really like the design of this boolit. If you really want to save, get a freechex 3 in .224 and make gas checks out of roof flashing.

I recently bought the 3-hole NOE 225-55 as my intro to casting for the .223, when 1000 fmj "pulls" rocketed to $130. You are correct that the pain of assembly is eased when considering that alternative.
What mold throws the '42 Merc dime? I gotta get me one of those...

I saw this in a cartoon once. I'm pretty sure I can pull it off...

Check out the NOE version of this boolit in the VS section and the 75 gr Mihec group buy in the GB section I am on the list for 75 gr. Have the 65 MiHec ans Noes 225-55.
