Back when I had a couple of dollars, and after researching just the equipment, I bought enough equipment & supplies to start reloading a variety of calibers. Part of the supplies are 1000 cast bullets, to be used in a PT140.
The bullets are from the Missouri Bullet Company; 500 are marked IDP #2, .401 dia, 170gr SWC, the others are marked IDP #5, .401 dia, 180gr TCFP; both are Brinell 18.
After doing a bit more research, it seems there may be additional considerations when using cast bullets. I'd appreciate any input on what problems one might encounter trying to use these bullets.
