Hi!
Ideal 311414 is THE solution. tried just after the lee 312-155gr who dosen't want to chamber correctly. I use the 311414 with the same reloading data as the lee 312-155gr.

The 303 will be the choice, the rifle has been glass bedded in the buttstock and is giving really good results. I'm eager to post a pic with a moose.

I have the lee 8mm MAX 246gr flatnose, home made lube with aluminium gas checks. what is the speed needed to get a clean kill with this boolit?
BTW we live in the same kind of village!!

I live in moose country in eastern canada, 6.5x55 is not allowed. This big guy will be taken in the backyard, i want to end his tenure in the most humanely/abrupt way. 303 will be the solution.

Hi!
i'm currently looking to reload for the moose hunting season, here's my options before going to J-word bullets:
-8mm mauser 246gr boolit loaded for 1950fps (somewhat innacurate load at...

HI!
Half of your answer here:314299 (316299 in my case) does very well in this caliber. !6gr of 2400 is the trick.
I don't know about how healty it would be in a 91 as i use a peruvian 1909 (98...

How large the RCBS bullet drops in your mold?? I size the cruise missiles to 0.268'' for my swedish rifles, can i do that with the RCBS silhouette mold?
Forum: CB Loads / Military Rifles
Thank you sir!
On the accuracy side, what kind of group this rifle is able to do? Say at 100Y with the lee 155gr.

Hi all!
Recently got a mas 36/51 in very good shape and after some cleaning and some dry firing, the rifle is too short with a less than desirable trigger... Does someone here have good results in...

I've bedded the buttstock on mine and this was a good upgrade. I use the Ideal 311413 sized to 0.314'' with gas checks loaded with shotgun powder to get 1200-1300fps.
Forum: CB Loads / Military Rifles
What is the weight of the bullet fully dressed? Somewhere around 195-200gr? Good shooting BTW!
Forum: CB Loads / Military Rifles
I've already done that, wasn't enough. Will try again next casting session.

Same thing here, i dont understand how you can use the lee molds in 31 caliber rifles... I'm unable to get something larger than 0.3125''-0.313'' with lee molds(312-155 and 312-185). What is your...

The brits used them as well, especially when they rebuilt their rifles after the war.
Here's my plan for the cutter: i want a Fat 31 cal for my oversized PU mosin sniper rifle. The dimensions are for the mold, not the bullet. The extra 0.002'' is for bullet shrinking while cooling. I...
I'm mot going to stop this project at all. I'm still unable to choose what kind of boolit to make the cutter for...
Here's what hapenned last friday:
After making many mistakes on a prototype (first pic) here's my first almost completed mold blank (second and third pic). Shrinking tests were succesful with the...

Another vote for the heavy boolit, i use NOE 316299 in 2 peruvians 1909 rifles (almost the same as the argentinian 1909) with 16gr of 2400 and it gives goods results so far.
I am currently going that way. The cutting test i've done friday was not that great. Next step will be on the lathe with a 4 jaw chuck.
