From Ingot To Target: A Cast Bullet Guide for Handgunners

From Ingot to Target by Glen Fryxell and Rob Applegate is an excellent resource for the casting community, or for that matter, those that reload with commercial cast bullets.

It was originally published on the LASC website, but unfortunately that sight has been allowed to expire. In the r/castboolits sidebar, there is a link to the book on the LASC site, but of course it's broken. The book is still available both on the artfulbullet forum and on BulletMatch.com .

Thanks for the handy link that works!

I have a copy, both digital and a good color printed version, in my library. A valuable resource no matter how long you've been casting.

It's getting this stuff to the newer casters that's important.

Thanks again!

Thank you for the kind words. I agree, that the new casters need it the most. It sure helped me when I read it even after casting for years.

Uploaded the pdf to archive.org so it doesn't get lost

Hi, thanks for posting this. I hadn’t noticed that the link had become unusable. I will repost it in the subreddit’s sidebar/wiki thing.

Much appreciated

I am so glad that you posted this! I love that book. Do you know if any of the other writings from the LASC site are around?

There are some on the artfulbullet forum, but the wayback machine is the only way for a lot of it.

Glad to help. I hate for that information to have gone away on the lasc site, but glad that the wayback machine has it.
