You have my attention.
Nice job! Plz give us the specs on the rifle etc.
what alloy are you using and wondering about the load and velocity. two calibers I have yet try cast bullets in are 243 and 270 I've always thought of them as 3000fps loads

This combination of powder, filler and primer also shoots well in my 257 Roberts. I will also be testing in 243 and 7-08 as time permits.Quote:

After a 6.5 Swede that didn't work out and went down the road, I have quite a few various 6.5 cast bullets around to try out. Looks like you have it figured out.
