journeymen,
I use wheel weights and drop them in water from the mold. This makes a hard bullet and I try to size my bullets .002" over groove diameter, but I'm not overly strict about that. I use a .364" bullet in a 9.3x72R with .358" grooves. These came from a joint casting session with a friend, using my mold and his lead. They are not my usual WW and we sized the whole pile to .364" because his groove diameter was .362". I intended to resize my half to .360" but I tried some and they shot great without leading the barrel, so I didn't resize them. Note Halfadouble's advice above, you may want to go by his rather than my experience.
