TNX. Mike. I just wish it was someplace then Ill.

Snowcat that deer sure looks real from here Smile
If your not getting any lead then what your using don't look to bad.
As long as your using it for target it would not hurt to make it a little harder so the ogive don't rub as hard but as long as the nose gets equal contact 360 degrees it should fly good.
I'm a firm believer in a smidge of antimony in my mix that would make that bullet just ride on the bands and leave the nose untouched. If you have the real WW add a 1/2# to your 1/20 mix or make some 1/16 but even 1/16 that bullet will still make contact on the nose but not as hard. Keep an eye out at the local lumber yards for a sale on 95/5 no lead solder that kind that is 95%tin 5% antimony. I just picked up a couple rolls at Menards for $18. for a 1# roll. That is what you would pay for tin anyway. Use one roll with 18 lbs lead and your better off then 1/16 tin/lead.
