Just curious, when I was actively shooting 20 years ago I shot mostly jacketed bullets and the cast were mostly for plinking without much regard for group size.
There were a few old timers I was aquainted with who shot very small groups with cast boolits. Now, 20 years later I still shoot J bullets but am interested in shooting cast in my larger bore rifles and am trying to shoot some minute of angle groups. So far, with my 45-70, I can consistantly get 1 1/2" 100 yd. groups with 425 flat nose gas check boolits similar to Lyman 405 gr. and sub 2" groups with the Lyman 535 gr. Postell plain base boolit.
What I am curious about is, what kind of groups are other shooters on this site getting with their 45-70's?
Are minute of angle groups unreasonable?
