A fellow member, Mustang, graciously sent me some GC'd and PC'd bullets in .308 in varying sizes from .308 to .311 and today I finally got out to shoot them. These were shot in my 300 BLK with 10.5" barrel at 50 yards and I have been having a rough time getting any of my cast bullets to shoot with any accuracy.
Here are the results from shooting 5 shots of each of the four sizes with everything being the same but the bullet sizing.
I find it interesting to see that the .308 sized bullets shot the best group of the four. I have finally slugged my barrel and it measured .308, as expected. I have a .308 sizing die that is supposed to be here today. I will size the remaining GC'd bullets that I have left over down to .308 and shoot again to make sure it wasn't a fluke. I also found another powder that gave me great results with my cast and PC'd bullets that I plan to use with some of these GC'd bullets as well as the powder I used with them today.
Just about when I was ready to give up on these casts.
Another huge thanks to Mustang.
