    222 rem & which NOE mold?

    I have a stack-'em-in-one-hole Rem 788 in 222 Remington I bought back in days of old. I've often thought about shooting cast in it, but the only 22 caliber mold designs I was familiar with were iron molds. I don't like iron molds. Just recently I got an aluminum NOE 7mm Hunter mold, and although I haven't used it yet it is top quality. So my question is: which Noe 225 mold will likely work best in my 1-14 twist 222 Rem rifle?

    Re: "days of old." That was back when beautiful women actually chased me.

    I'm using the NOE 22-055 FN in both of my 222's. It looks very similier to the NOE 225 60Gr. RN Mine cast out to 60.2 grains with GC and lube. Basically one hole groups if I weigh out the boolits and shoot a group with 5 of the same weight. I'm shooting them in two Rem model 700's. Shooting them in an AR15 as well.

    I second the NOE 22-55 FN boolit. Same deal for me, 10 shots in one hole the size of a quarter at 50 yards all day long.

    He has the 62 gr Eagan boolit in stock now which should be a killer in about any 22. Going to cast up some today and give them a go this week.
