Title: Adding point weight tricks?
Post by: elbow on May 07, 2010, 09:58:00 PM
I have to add 100 grains to some Gold Tip shaft tips to make them work. Anyone have any ideas on how to add 100 grains to the front end without buying the commercial weights?

I would use 100 gr brass inserts but if you have aluminum ones already epoxied in,that may not be an option.My second choice would be to use steel inserts and glue on heads.

Epoxy a .243 bullet in behind the insert.
