I shoot the home cast bullets for pure economy though I will suggest trying Trail Boss for the powder. It works well, and is clean as clean gets. The largest chore for cleaning all of my guns that I shoot Trail Boss in is the carbon from bullet lube.

Oh the mold was cheap, and it works fine for me. I have pushed them to around 1300 FPS with AA#9. I keep them in the 800 to 900 FPS area with Trail Boss. No punishing recoil at all. The only time I have a problem with them is at the range when Mrs. M&P is there. Then the problem is trying to get her to put it down long enough for me to shoot it before she shoots up all of the ammo.
