    1:14 early 50's M99 EG - 250 Savage...which cast boolit?

    Just acquired this rifle and am planning on exclusively shooting lead bullets out of it (like all my lever actions). Looking at Montana BulletWorks (I don't cast--long story). I won't go the 120 route do to the slower twist and was angling towards the 95 gr LBT mold as it doesn't have a cannelure like the RCBS 100 gr. Finally, while I haven't (yet) slugged the bore, I assumed I'd go with .258" over the only other MBW option of .257"--thoughts on the above? THANKS

    What if your throat needs 0.260?
