I shoot the Lyman 452374 cast of WW, sized to 0.452", lubed with 45-45-10, over 540 powder. They run about 850-875 fps, no leading, accurate.

You sound just like me! My family hates watching a made-from-the-book movie with me. If it shares the title, references the book in the synopsis, by golly it should follow the book!
Problem is,...

Captain, I tried WW alloy for Lee REAL in a .50 rifle. Almost had to use a hammer to seat the bullet. Harder alloys are NOT so good for that type of bullet. And mine wasn't as accurate as pure lead...

Krag, I shoot Lee's C225-55gr RF through my AR in 5.56 and my Rem 600 in .222 and they are accurate. I PC them for my AR, and mostly use PC for the .222 now. AR is 1-8 .222 is 1-14.
Would you care...

Bedbugbilly, thanks. I really haven't had a chance to do more than fire the pistol a few shots. But I'm looking forward to finding a good accurate load for it with round balls.

If those bullets came in a tube with blue caps on the ends then they are white's for sure they had a odd way of packaging for there bullets.[/QUOTE]

Yes, they are in a clear tube with blue caps!...

I was gifted a range bag of goodies, and an old CVA 'Hawken' pistol this spring. I finally got to look through the bag and found about 50 of these monsters.
They measure .504" diameter, are 1.250"...

I'll have to stick with my Browning BPS 12ga. Smoothest pump gun I've ever fired. And she points like a dream.

I still use my old Redding BR 2 scale. Goes to 505gr which is enough for my needs over the last28 years, and I have a Dillon beam scale for back up. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

Got a matched pair of Goex just like that, don't remember the price on them though. Have 2 cardboard pyrodex P and a cardboard RS, unopened. Pyro: $8.49ea
Ah, simpler days gone by....

Love it in 45acp under a 225gr cast. I have an old Winchester pamphlet that I'll use for 12ga loads. It's on my list to do.

Yes. But searching turned up nothing using HS6 with that boolit in the .243 so I started from scratch. Once I settle on a load, I'll update the final data, maybe help the next shooter

I've used 4D Reamer Rentals for almost 20 years. Customer service above and beyond. Great prices too.

My Spanish Mauser in 7.62x51(CETME) loves the 155 PC'd, GC'd and sized to .310" Feeds great from the magazine, no jams.

So, a friend gifted me 8lbs of 1980s W540 summer of 2021. December of '21 I acquired a Mossberg Patriot in .243 Win.
Bought a Lyman 245496 single cavity used.
I had an unopened 1lb of Unique, but...

I've had no issues using WW RB in my .50 or in my .58..... I actually deliberately cast my .58 Minie` out of WW and it keeps the skirt from deforming with a hotter load. I've ran them up to 120gr of...

It came to be common doctrine in Europe in the late 1800s. A girl had a 'vision from God' and the masses sucked it up like a dry sponge. Despite scripture to the contrary. Mark 24:25

For a velocity of 1050fps. 20-1 lead-tin mix should give you a boolit soft enough to expand, but hard enough to fill the bore without leading the barrel. With traditional lube or powder coated. 20-1...

Until I ran out, my favorite for 220 cast in my '06 has been SR7625. This 4759 came at the perfect time. Working up a load should be easy.
Goes to show, even a blind dog finds a bone once in a...

I use 10:1 using 90% alcohol, and recently formed almost 100 .243 Win out of .308 Win with zero issues. Used the baggie lube method.

Picked up a 4lb can of SR 4759 today at an estate sale. $5.00 yep, five dollars [smilie=p: Wasn't about to argue with the man. Lots of cast 220gr for my '06 :bigsmyl2:

Pricey, but available. About $165/1k to your door. Cheaper if your buying in quantity. I've chatted with a few reloaders on gun group sites that say they're good primers. ...

Horse traded for a Mossberg Patriot in .243 Win. back in January '22.
Worked up a couple of nice j-word loads already. Waiting to come across a bullet mold so I can get some cast flying downrange.

My 1952 mfg Remington 721 in 30/06. Traded an all-matching-numbers 1917 Enfield for it, from the original owner. He bought it new in '53. Shoots amazingly, looks great.
