I've lurked here forever but have never posted. I was curious to know how my preferred .30 cal. alloy stacks up against the alloy choices of others. I use 6 ingots of COWW to one ingot of linotype. Recovered bullets show no signs of failure. I shoot a lot of it through four Krag rifles and I have never had an incidence of leading. I should mention that I have never tried to speed things up beyond 1,700 fps and generally stay below 1,600 fps. I have no need to change things, but would like a good idea how hard this alloy is compared to others.
