I've been working on a slug load that shows consistent performance over a chronograph, although I have yet to bench shoot it for accuracy from my H&R ultra slug topped with a 4x ERR Leupold. In metals, and in many other solids, the Filling the cavities one by one, waiting for the liquid lead alloy sprue to solidify, I strike the sprue plate with a section of hickory handle from a broken shovel. Both hit at least one lung and clipped the heart. just remember you don't have to hot rod these slugs to get good performance on game if you look at what happens to a lot of factory foster/rifled slugs on impact they tend to break because their soft and have a huge hallow base. If you buy bullet casting lead that already has tin and antimony in it, you do not need to buy Linotype alloy. The gate swings free, cutting the sprue, and I open the mold halves, dropping shiny, perfectly cast slugs onto an old soft towel so as not to warp or dent the fragile slugs. This is due to the fact that this alloy has a strength of aprox 12,000-psi which means that the alloy can withstand pressures up to and including most normal shotgun chamber pressures without being distorted by acceleration stresses. Oct 10, 2020 · The Brinell Number Hardness (BNH) scale is a method of determining the hardness of metals. Nov 1, 2013 · Antimony is the metal element used to increase the hardness of lead shot.
