It's really a two man job. One man casts the bullets. After a few seconds in the mould the lead is hard on the outside, but hopefully still soft in the middle. Put it in the pouch. Wet the pouch if you want to, but the shot will not be in it for long. Cast it ASAP. The shot may break open on inpact, or just smoulder away in the wood.
But of course this sounds fine on paper. Now go try it. Let me know how you get on and let's compare notes.
