Hello to all! I'm pleased to find this site as I want to get started in bullet casting. I recently became interested in hand cast bullets after purchasing a .44 special revolver and reading about handloads and what could be achieved by using a prudent bullet and powder combination. To that end I've learned that to create a accurate load the bullet must be of the same diameter (or slightly oversized) of the chamber throats in a revolver. My questions are;
if the bullet mould produces bullets of the proper size is it necessary to run them through the sizer and luber?
If the bullet is undersized what does the sizer do?
If the bullet is oversized what does the sizer do?
What creates a oversized or undersized bullet?
Thanks for your input and please do recommend reading material that I could study before attempting my first batch.
