OK. I used a bullet for the nib instead of the one that came with the slimline kit. I drilled out the bottom or back of the bullet, and melted out the lead on the inside. The bullet polished up easily with Brasso after the meltdown. I know others drill the lead, but on a suggestion, I thought I'd get rid of the lead altogether. Now the question. The ink cartridge fits loosely in the hollow point hole in the bullet. Is this ok? The only other option I can think of using the no lead method is to fill the bullet with epoxy and drill again. I hate repeats.
This is a 300 win short mag. Antler is sanded to 600 and polished with HUT plastic polish. Finish is Shellwax. I like a little bark left on the antler. I say it adds character.
