even when you get a slight frosty appearance you still end with the tin on the surface.
Try putting on gas checks before powder coating. Try a little less powder or tap against side of bowl to knock off excess powder, makes a smoother coat also try extending cook time some!Here is the latest batch of 30 cal rifle bullets:

Coverage is "OK", but not as good/even as with the pistol bullets:

it almost looks like the pigment 'fell out' of the powder or separated.
I get kind of the same thing if I try to use the powder a couple of times and it breaks down in the cup.
I started using [measuring out] just what I need and tossing anything leftover after a batch of bullets.
I do this as well. I've found that the powder coat migrates in between the check and the bullet, making their relationship rather permanent. I've blown bullets up an steel target and found the gas checks on the ground with the lead "step" from the bullet still attached. Kinda cool!+1 'Bama.
