Tried my hand at Hi Tek coating some bullets - did two pounds in a $12 Walmart Toaster oven using a thermocouple meter to get the temp correct (200°C ± 5°)

Need to get my casting technique down because there were a number of rounds that cast oversize - Thought I was being good about keeping the mold clean and well lubed but will need to go through and sort for size or pick up a .356 sizer and just run everything through it.
