    AR 15 and cast

    Below is a couple of 10 round 100 yard groups I fired a week or so ago.
    The rifle is a RRA Lar 15 with 24" heavy 12 twist barrel with
    the NOE 70 gr rn. and AA 2015 at 17.0gr and a dacron filler,
    this load cycles the rifle flawlessly and throws the case about 4 ft.
    The load on the left is from a cold clean barrel.
    I will play with this some more for sure!!!

    These gas checked, powder coat, tumble lubed. I have a few I was sent from a member here to try out. Did not get into testing with it too much since the Lee c225-55-rf groups decently at 100yds. Thinking seriously about this mold in gc using Lyman 45 with probably carnuba blue. Keep us posted on progress with load development please.

    There cast in a mix of 75%-25% WW and Lino then aged two weeks, sized at 225 and GC'ed then
    oven heat treated at 400° for an hour with ice water quench, then back in the sizer for
    felix lube.
