this is an old photo, I should take a new one. As the cold weather sets in, I plan to do some organizing.

Would be a PITA to pull one of each different bullet out to be photographed.

Last week I was casting 44 caliber bullets out of 20-1 lead. Borrowed mold from Rick. RCBS 300 SWC, hollow pointed by Eric.

Yesterday, I ran them though the Star. All my bullets are one color........... the color of naked lead. The only color variations would be the lube bands and gas checks.

Yeah I keep a couple of samples of each bullet in the mold draws with each mold, which has a divided section in each drawer. Kinda thought it was an interesting exercise just to see the different styles all together. Thought I would make a small display from the samples. Is it needed? No.
What I do need after looking at CW’s, JonB’s and Arkansas John’s storage shelving, is clear labeled jars of some kind. Mine are in any old tube with a sticky note attached.
