Folks,:violin:

I need some help for 2 different projects.:killingpc My wife just got her 38-55 H&R Buff Target and we shot it with some 240 gr boolits Saturday. With BP= loads it's like shooting a 223 ! (Yes women do shoot and she is a shooter and hunter.)

I would like to try some of the Lyman 330 gr bullets before I sink money into a mold. Some have said that the 18 twist will not stablize them, and I'd like to have a few to try.:veryconfu

I'll swap any of the boolits I cast for some of these (44 keith, 38/357 gc and plain, 30 cal (all GC)115's and 160's,45-70 1-20 tin lead at 450 gr ( Lee 500 gr mold, these shoot well to 1000 meters)44 and 357 hollow base( I don't cast many of these, but will for a swap.

The other project needs about 10-12 50 cal gas checks. We ( Ga Tech, don't hold that aginst me) needs to try them as high temp seals in an experiment. We are trying to make better / lighter power transmission cables that will be a composite of Aluminum and carbon fiber. The mold we are working with is .505 dia so 50 cal would be perfect. A student is working on this with South Wire and would like to graduate.[smilie=b:

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

The Lyman 330 grain boolits work fine in my Target Model. PM me with your address and I'll get a few coming your way.

Well, I'll be! I attended North Avenue Trade School briefly in 1960-61! Grew up in Rome GA, just a bit north of Atlanta. I lived on 4 for a buck chili dogs at the Varsity drive-in. The varsity just wasn't the same after they stopped putting running boards on cars. Before then you got a car hop on your running board when you pulled into the driveway and he would give you the menu specials and have your order all before you found a parking place! I think they torn down my dorm (Techwood) many years ago.. and good riddance!
