What is the coating?

Tungsten Disulfide.

Saeed, maybe a dumb question, but does the tungsten disulfide coating add any appreciable weight to the bullet?

Mike,

I took 5 bullets and weighed them - all 375 caliber.

Sprayed them and weighed them.

Difference was 1.5 grains for all 5, which works out at 0.3 of a grain on each bullet.

Saeed,

it is just amazing work

I see you give them a hollow point, do they give any expansion?

Saeed, they are just beautiful, if such can be said about a bullet. Thanks for the lathe photos. I hadn't thought about it, but it makes sense to cut the hollowpoint first. I am only familiar with swaging on Corbin equipment, where you swage your uniform core, seat it in the jacket and then form the point around the hollow-pointing pin.
