Hi all, been reading so much my head is starting to spin! Having never hunted with cast boolits I want to tap into the experience of those that have hunted large game.
I picked up a nice pre-remlin marlin CB in 4570 for moose hunting. I currently have the ranch dog 460 350Gr. RF 5 cavity GC mold and my intention is to hunt moose out to and possibly past 200 yards. To that end I have an alloy consisting of 50/50 coww/soww +2% tin. I don't have a hardness tester but based on the internet, hardness should be around 12bn air cooled? Should I be water quenching for more hardness with this bullet shape? I plan to gas check them and push them around 2000fps. Any guess as to the hardness if I water drop this allow? Thanks all.
