    Smile M1 Garand and cast.

    Loaded some 190g hard cast with some WC872 surplus powder and it is great no pressure very mild and accurate. I had only loaded up ten rounds two to test with and eight in the clip. It cycled excelent and all but two flyers in the 10 ring five in the X. Now I have to order more before they run out of it like 4895.

    It is full and will compress when the boolet is pressed in.
