Good day all,
Just to give you a little detail about myself, I've been reloading, and casting for about 20 year. On average I shoot about 10,000 cast rounds a year, so I guess that should mean that I have a basic knowledge of casting. What I was wondering is, has anyone ever tried casting using two different alloys, a hard one for the base of the bullet, and a softer one for the tip. My plan for this is to cast a 200 grain, .309" bullet using a mixture of WW and pure lead, then cut the bullet in half, put the nose part back in the mold and pour in my harder alloy. Remove bullet and size, and lube. Do you guys think this will work? I'm open to all suggestions.
Thanks all
