    Hello Bob,

    I think I'd try a plain base gas check made from an aluminum soda pop can.

    Yes, however accuracy with the PBd bullet at that velocity level may not be what is desired. If PBd cast bullets shot well between 1800 to 2000 fps we all would be using them for that.

    As mentioned, a GCd bullet will be best for that level. The bullet you should do extremely well in the 1200 to 1600 fps range.

    Ricebubbles sounds about right for Ric Krispies since they are full of bubbles!

    Might be the same thing. RiceKrispes are just puffed up rice kernels. That's why they just
    crush down to a powder when the bullet is seated. It will smell like your baking cookies when
    you shoot them. I shoot 26 grs of AA2520 powder and the 150 gr, ranchdog bullet in my
    30/30 lubed with Ben's Liquid Lube. No leading , I'am getting about 1850 fps out of that
    load. Can cover the group at fifty yds with a nickel. The RiceKrispes work for me. Give them
    a try, whats to lose.
