For those who have painted their bullets what is a general recommendation past the "starter" Harbor Freight powder paint? Is there a really good stand-by go-to in a dark more "gun" color? Something like Black, Gray, Midnite Blue etc.? Something that looks less "toy", or radical?
I need tons of .401 bullets, and want to do some 6mm/95 gr. and 147/200 gr. in 9mm/.358.
Painting encapsulates the lead and allows it to shoot in semi-autos better without gunking things up. Of course I have to go buy a new toaster oven. Still don't know why it blew up. The element under the pan burned through, must have touched the metal pan and created a dead short. It made a white arch fireball in the center of the pan and blew off the non-stick coating on the pan. Anyway it's done. Of course it blew the 20A breaker, but it took long enough!
