I don't have 2400. I do have Red Dot and Unique. Maybe I'll just stick with those and the velocity restrictions involved.

Larry, I was hoping you would reply.
I have the Lyman 3rd on my phone, but information is scant for 7.62x54r. I have 311284 boolits (but not the mold), and I have the Lee 312-185-1R and...

I'm wanting to get somewhat faster velocities than Red Dot and Unique can give me.

My Lee Second Edition reloading manual has formulae for reducing loads with a pressure factor and a velocity factor. Some of them use slow powders like H414. Has anyone tried this for cast...
Forum: CB Loads / Military Rifles
What do you think the pressure problem will be? There isn't any pressure data in the book.
Forum: CB Loads / Military Rifles
I have some 311284 bullets that I inherited from my Dad, along with some powder and his old manuals. The bullets measure out to .314, and weigh 220 gr lubed and checked, which I'm hoping will work...

I like the gun, so, I'm willing to give it a try. Is your M44 counterbored?
Forum: CB Loads / Military Rifles
I re slugged the M44, and I got .315 grooves this time. Which means a .316 mold and/or paper patching. I think I may do both, but I'm not sure I can paper patch... We'll see.

I'm pretty much a boolit shooter only. I can mine the berm for free, jacketed bullets cost money that She Who Must Be Obeyed isn't willing to release... :violin:
Forum: CB Loads / Military Rifles
And the numbers are .3135 and .305 for the M44 and .312(might even be .311) and .300 for the M91/30.
This explains why the M44 shoots around corners and the M91/30 is pretty close to a tack...

Not liking the new format either, to be honest.

Is it normal to have to jack the sights up to 500 meters for 100 meter accuracy when shooting cast in a rifle?
I was shooting "The Load" 13 gr of Red Dot pushing Lee's TLC-312-160-2R in my...

I loaded up 10 rounds with 19 gr of Blue Dot (40% of case capacity) pushing a LEE CTL312-160-2R. The boolit, with gas check, weighs 170 gr.
Am I going to blow up my Mosin?
Or should I just...

Only down side is, now I'm out of lead. :(

It's the bar stool at my reloading bench. I moved the boolits for the picture. I don't s*** lead, I bleed it...

Only prone unsupported is allowed though, so we'll see how fast he can rack that bolt from that position. I shoot lefty, so I son't think I could pull it off reaching over the receiver.
