Learn to turn scrap lead into good useable bullets. I routinely turn out handgun bullets for $20-$35 per thousand.

We start with a lecture and slideshow covering safety, history, alloys, molds and more.
Then we go hands on with single cavity, double cavity, hollow point, and 4/6 cavity molds.
Followed by gas checking and running a luber/sizer and powder coating.
Back to the classroom for reloading with cast bullets and a review.
