Thanks for all the great info! These bullets have leaded a Marlin 1894 and my new Henry Steel rifle. Specifically, it leads an area about 2" long that is just past where the chamber ends and...

I have a Henry 44 mag rifle that slugs out at exactly 0.431". Tried Missouri Bullet Company 240gr 0.432" 18 BHN bullets and leaded my barrel trying to shoot 1350 fps over either Unique or Universal....

Very good info on the 9mm. Wasn't planning to use it for Bullseye, but wanted to have a target gun for load development and just plain fun that shot 9mm. My dad has a mint condition Sig P210 that...

Thanks for the lead on Hunters Supply.

I have tried the Missouri Bullets with the HyTek coating before in my 44 Mag Marlin 1894 and they leaded as bad as the non HyTek bullets. Was only shooting...

When I look up the TrueShot boolits they are $30/100, which is more expensive than the Speer 170s JFP that I can routinely get for $23/100. Are you getting them discounted or doing something else? ...

Thanks Popper and FredBuddy. I was planning to use H4895 as that is my go to power for 30-30 (and every other rifle I have). You confirmed what everyone says: that I need .311 for my microgroove...

Fantastic feedback. I literally was looking at getting a new bushing the other day. Mine comes out with my fingers no problem. Good to know about the angle bushing and slide stop. For the price...

Thanks for the responses. Yes, I need this to be accurate... approximately 2 MOA. I've only shot cast in pistols and 44 Mag, where GC's were not needed due to low velocity (and the accuracy has...

I have gotten a ton of great info from Castboolits, but one topic that still is murky to me is gas checks. Lots of posts on them, but there seems to be two camps on whether you need them or not. ...

I remember why I have not used the Berrys. Problem is our range rules at my 5,000+ people club. We shoot lever action silhouette on the 200 yard silhouette range and the 30-30 can only be loaded...

From what I can tell, you seem to be spot on about buying commercial gas checked bullets vs JFP. Looks like if you cast your own and press on the gas check, you can save some cash. Cast is so much...

Great suggestion. I have thought about the Berrys bullets as I shoot a lot of them in pistol. My concern in rifle is that they do not have a cannelure to crimp in. Berrys says to use a taper crimp...

Great information! The local High Master Bullseye shooter got me turned on to WST and 200gr LSWC. I have used Zero bullets in 9mm, 357 and 45 ACP (all JHP) and they have been nearly as good as...

Just to be clear to the other folks who are responding (which I really appreciate), I want to buy the bullets with the gas checks already installed. I simply don't have time to cast bullets or press...

That is what I am looking for. Thanks. It's too bad he only offers .309 diameter. I was under the impression that .310 or .311 was "ideal" for Marlin 336 barrels.

Penn Bullets states that his bullets are good without gas checks to 2000 fps. I though you needed them once you got over about 1400 fps or so? I leaded up a 1894 44 Mag once and I don't want to...

I have been using Missouri Bullet Co. 200gr LSWC bullets with good success in my Range Officer 1911. The local bullseye guys say that MBC is not all that and I should be shooting a "swaged" lead...

I have no intention of casting my own bullets, so I am wondering if anyone makes 30-30 gas checked bullets that are cheaper than the Speer bullets I use for silhouette? The Speer 170s can be had for...

Very good info from all. Thanks so much. My initial reason for subsonic was thinking that it would be more accurate like 22lr. That is the super to subsonic transition messes with accuracy in that...

I am getting into lever pistol caliber silhouette and have 1k worth of MBC 200gr LRNFP boolits sized to 0.432" and am wondering what you guys are using for powders. In this game accuracy is...
