All, Once again I tried to coax Helga, my [as issued] Mod. 96 Swe. Mau., into digesting the LBT 140gr. spire pointed, gas checked cast bullets that I torment myself with. Even with Felix Lube in their grooves and heat-treatment on their bods, I couldn't rid Helga of her distaste for them. Poor grouping & bbl. leading are what I got for my efforts! And to think I paid big bucks for that mold too: Helga's an ingrate wit large! Btw, it's not the rifle or the powder or the amount used since 15gr. WC 820 and a CB from Lee Custom mold (not the 6.5 Kurtz; this one looks like a miniature #311041) grouped into less than 2 m.o.a. and always has. My bad luck, however, may be your good fortune if you're in the market for a LBT mold in excellent condition. I"m asking $65 + postage/ins., so PM or e-mail me if you're interested, curious, maybe even masochistic, or all of these!
