Still not politically correct, just powder coated.  Been fiddling around a bit and although not 100% like I'd like them- they're good enough to be launched...  

I started with red, went to green and then decided to make some "zombie-tracers"

Those look very cool. No residue problem in the barrel? Does the thickness of the powder coating alter the boolit diameter significantly enough to matter?

To the paranoid people who check behind shower curtains for murderers:

if you find one...what's your plan?

Little residue- no leading- size them after they 'cure' for a week or so, if needed.  I measure all my firearms and will shoot a lead boolit that is up to .003" over bore.

Have you noticed any difference in performance or ease of cleaning? Definately very artistic. They belong in a Xmas stocking. Sell them around holidays like marshmellow peeps , pumpkins and snowmen. With the appropriate colors of course.

At 50 yards and less, no appreciable difference.  With rifle bullets over 100 yards, accuracy is a bit worse but hey- they generate curiosity...  no issues with cleaning the PC sticks to the bullet, not to the land.
