So trying to get my Marlin to hit the side of a barn with cast boolits.
Googled extensively to find what I would need.
Ordered a custom size mold, got a lee sizer for
.311
Casted about 50, powder coated them, sized them went to load and first I started shaving them, so got a neck expanding die to take care of that. Then I find out the Lee bullet seating die is snagging on them when I try to seat them. Scraping the bullet and I have no control on depth. Has anyone else run into this? Due I need a die for a bigger bullet? I'm still new to loading rifle and just not finding info really about this. I just want to hit the paper doesn't need to bullseye just a corner would be nice.
In the photos I used some bad cases while I was trying to figure out what was going on. I know the factory crimp is wayyyy to strong I forgot to adjust it for the bigger size.
