Alrighty, count me in as 25! I have a 330 gr version of this mold from Miha from 2010 and have been shooting whitetail and hogs with it both in a ruger 45 colt and with a sabot in a 50 cal BP rifle....

wow, that' smoking fast for 215 gr. I've loaded some with 8.0, 8.4, and 8.6 gr longshot - 8 each, hand-weighed. Sounds like I'd better be pretty careful with the 8.6gr. Think I'll finish off with...

Thanks for the research - I hadn't seen that 11.2 gr of 2400. Unfortunately I don't have any of those other powders at hand.
Forum: Cast Boolits
Any load data you have would be appreciated. My books don't have it. 1150 fps would be perfect - I'm looking for 1100 or greater for the top load.

I'm loading for a glock 20 with a 22# spring and a stock-length KKM barrel. I go hunting/camping and use it as my 'everything handgun' - 2 legs, 4 legs, protection, hunting, plinking, beat-around...

So, I have finally got around to using my new MP molds 10mm, 220 gr beauty. And I will say it is my 4th Mihec mold and 8th overall and maybe my favorite. I got about 80% keepers and fast. Anyway,...

Purely due to bullet selection, inside of 150 yds I have more confidence in the muzzle loader than 243 for sure, maybe also 30-06.
Forum: Hunting with CB's
The exit was about the same, maybe 25% larger. This season I also shot a 190# buck with a 30-06 and a 120 lb pig with a 243. Both those did not pass through.i got lucky to find one with no blood...

Thanks to all. The deer managed to get about 80 yards, but it was like following someone pouring out a red paint can.

Recently I got my first harvest with a boolit, and with my blackpowder rifle at the same time. It was a 50 cal with 100 gr pyrodex. Boolit was a Mihec 330 gr 45 colt flat nose at 80 yards. ...

I'd bet on a month or two. But nobody knows.... I'm just watching until I have the funds. The 10mm mihec just depleted them. It's unfortunate there is no lead time, but there you have it. A...
Forum: Cast Boolits
Got it. I'm trying for more uniform brass. I was looking for more than 1700-1800 fps ( based on Quickload per BjornB). Hoping to get near the 2,000 mark, although it may not be needed or possible....
Forum: Cast Boolits
Thanks for the reply, I think I'm basically trying to find a 'node' up near the max velocity/RPM that the lead can handle. 35 grains Varget seems to be over that. My guess now is to work up at .2...
Forum: Cast Boolits
I understand about the 1 type of brass. However, I didn't have 30 of the same type on hand when loading them. At this point, my COL is just a guess based on a similar-type boolit in the Lyman...
Forum: Cast Boolits
this is the first load I have 'worked up' to this degree for cast boolits. so, I am asking those with more knowledge for tips and to make sure I am going about this the right way. I want this to be...

I'd take another headlight or two. I love mine!

That makes sense to me. Put me down for the 220 gr with lube grooves.

Ok, I just got a new Glock 20 in 10mm. I want it to be my woods gun and for hunting deer to 140 lbs and hogs to over 300 lbs. Any suggestion from those who have used it on whether I should get the...

Excellent. I'd much rather the extra week than an unsafe product. Thanks.

Ok. I hope this one goes but I'll consider looking elsewhere also.
