    Another Fatter 30 GB

    I'm ready to start this GB, but I was going to use the new GB page. It's gone.

    I think it's still under construction?

    Is the proper boolit the one in post 43 in the thread?

    Who do I get the drawing from?

    The drawing in post # 43 is fine with me. I have no idea what happened to the Group Buy Page.

    Catshoter, have you decided how long you are going to leave this one open? I just bought a 91/30 and have not had time to slug the bbl yet.

    The design came from 45 2.1. he was the one that posted the specs earlier in that thread.
    I just reposted them on #43 to bring everyone up to speed and get a vote.

    Post #43 seemed to be what everyone liked.

    Yes, this is a cut and paste of #43 from the old thread, this is the one I want.

    07032



    The specs on the bullet:

    It weighs 181 gr. bare, meplat of 0.178" and is 1.00" long, which is about the max for a LEE 6 cavity. Its diameter is 0.319" and could be expected to be 0.318"+ from LEE. It is easily sized down 4 or 5 thousandths without much distortion.

    This is the one from what I gathered.

    As for honcho we haven't one as of yet. I've given it some thought about honchoing this one up if there aren’t any objections. Or unless someone else really wants to do it then I'll step aside.

    mee too!

    As long as I know this is going to happen, I'm not impatient. Let's wait for the group buy section to be completed and use this as the guinea pig purchase if it would be helpful to the board in general.

    I'm in for however the honcho wants to run this thing: just nice to know they'll be the opportunity to get a mold of this configuration!

    Gentlemen,

    It is open. It is in the Group Buy Management section.

    I was going to open it and even started to but then I had to work all weekend and couldn't get to it in time.

    I just checked the Group Buy Management section, and as of Wed., 9:15AM, the Fatter .30 isn't listed.

    Well, fer cryin' out loud.

    Boys, I'm really sorry, I thought it was there.

    Felix e-mailed me today, asking me why I wasn't using the site, and I can't even tell if their is a product listed or not!

    I'll post, right now.
