From what little I've read on PC, it's a toss up to size before or after PC. I guess it depends on the as cast Dia. of the bullets.When sizing them, does the powder coating come off?

I do it with great success!
Harbor Freight red powder coat and use case vibrator for about 20 minutes.
Case vibrator is much better than the shake and bake method.
Got one of Trader Dan’s (RidgeRunner) toaster ovens, place bullets on parchment paper,,,250 degrees for 20 minutes and SHAZAM!
Nicely coated cast lead bullets!
Watch some youtubes for tips and tricks.
Casting bullets is fun.

It’s not hard at all...just time consuming like everything else in life you want, but are anal about doing it the way you want it vice paying someone else to do...Heres some pics of the old HF red paint...not the best result, and have to pc twice usually to get 100% coverage...I just cast and pc’ed a few hundreds boolits in .32 caliber for JJ for one of his science gun projects...
No it does not. I like to size after powder coating.When sizing them, does the powder coating come off?

I saw some say they preferred a mesh tray vs the parchment. Have you had any issues using a baking sheet and parchment?
I’m about to start casting and have zero experience at this point. Just trying to learn before I start acquiring equipment. Easy to make minor adjustments vs large ones
Wouldn't firing 6 jacketed bullets thru it every so often while shooting clear out the trash?? Thats what I do with my webley, seems to work. Aka Williams cleaner bullet.prevents leading the barrel if loaded hot
