    We've used the LEE 6-cav '93' with success in that cartridge, PC'd.

    Accurate molds has a sack full of molds suitable for the 7.62x25. I use this one http://www.accuratemolds.com/bullet_...=31-105C-D.png sized to .311 for the 7.62 Mauser with the same amm going into my CZ52. Also use the bullet in .32-20 revolver and rifle. The gas check is not needed. Keep the bullets relatively soft and Unique or Bulls Eye will get you 1200 -1400 fps or so with no leading.
    To paraphrase Ronald Reagan, the trouble with many shooting experts is not that they're ignorant; its just that they know so much that isn't so.

    I have a saeco 321 4 cavity that I have used for this cartridge. It is a nominal 95 grain RN that fed well from a Norinco type 54 I used to have.
