I am very eager to hear of the success or failures of electro plating cast bullets. I figure i can spend the 200$ that i would spend on a lubeing due and put that towards the tank setup for electro plating, and then not worry about lube at all as cast bullets dont require lube.
My buddy who works in a chem lab says it should not be all that hard or expensive to set up, just need a steady supply of clean copper for the plating process.
Personally i think this would be really neat to be able to create a plated bullet from the rounds i cast. the only drawback i could see would be time required to prep the rounds, i believe they would need to be resized twice, once before plating, and once after.
anyone ever try their hand at electro plating before?
surely there are science buffs among us hand loaders
