"I am gonna take a turn on the lathe with some of the copper bronze rod for .224 dia bullets . even if I have to use the bad ones with 30 cal sabots"

That can be a great way to make bullets, for anyone who can cut a very consistent ogive from one bullet to the next. Some custom match bullet shops have done really well with those. I haven't had time to look into solving that problem (extremely consistent ogive on a lathe) but will try to get around to it.
