    NOE 311-247 nose Dia.

    What is the nose Dia. of 311-247 bullets ?
    I had herd of one person's mold throwing noses that were .300-.3005, but both of the molds I had dropped .297 and that was just in front of the top DB.
    Long story short, if anyone has a 4 or 5 cavity W/ GC's that drops noses with a .300+ OD and this is causing seating problems with your AR's, want to trade ?

    I wonder if they are measuring them after sizing ? I was to heavy handed with my lyman 4500 seating GCs and yea i was not sure the GC seating tool just pushing down with a little to much. Yes I know that is not the right way but it fatten the noses up enough some would not chamber others were tight did not take long to find out what i was doing wrong. Just a thought I was sharing.

    I'm pretty sure the person that said his mold dropped bullets with .300 noses would be that heavy handed to "bump" the nose, in fact I'm suprized you didn't bent the nose. Don't guess anyone else is concerned with accuracy past 50 Yds. Isn't that the usual range for AR's and "zombie" hunting
