    I'm going to find that hard to resist.
    It will not likely be a practical solution, but I will have to tinker with it.
    A mould for hot glue ballistic tips would be killer.

    Hopefully I can find...

    With a Noveske Barrel, I size my 247 Grain NOE FN boolits to .309 and they are good to go.
    The mould puts them out at .311 and I use a Lee sizing die to get them to .309

    While getting this mould made would be awesome, the normal sources for one off moulds are not able to produce one with such a small Meplat.

    No problem...
    FYI, N110 is by far the best powder for supersonic 300 BLK loads.
    Super clean, very accurate and close to 100% case fill.
    The AA#9 works well, but the case fill is only about 75%...

    Accurate #9 works great for 300 BLK supersonic loads.
    15.5 grains under a 110 grain bullet is a safe place to start.

    The twist rate required to stabilize a bullet is primarily dependent on the length of the bullet at a given velocity.
    A cast boolit is more dense than a jacketed bullet and therefore will be shorter...

    I agree on the weight, but going heavier allows it to mimic the jacketed bullet performance better.
    Additionally, the heavier boolit allows one to use the Forster Hollow Pointing jig to make hunting...

    Thanks for the info.
    I run into DS all the time over at 300 BLK Talk.
