Lee 6.5 swed mold took since July 2009 to get it. It cast alittle big .270 but My Jap deer rifle seems to have a big groove of 267 Shoots as well as it did with jacketed bullets It is 16 in barrel with a 2.5 scope. Herter stock Metal is Rustolum flat black. My first deer rifle at age 12 I a m 53 now.The barrel was orginal 16 inch. Midsouth was where I got the mold. Cast very nice. Rick

I've tried 15 gr of 4759 but didn't chronograph it. While the bullet stabilized accuracy wasn't exactly impressive. Same mold. But every gun is diferent.
