Cast bullets for a 223 AR-15?

[parkerhale1200]

My box of small rifle primers (gynex) is almost empty: 10.000 pcs.
Only meant for the ar 15, i must admit it was hard work to reach this number.
With military iron site at 110 yards/100 meters: 2 inch groups are always there, except when i/we are in a playful mood.
I don't even weigh them anymore, just size/lube and gs em.
If i would really go the full mile, yes 1 inch can be done, for sure!

I don't own a top notch, top shelf ar rifle, just a affordable average joe, 13 in a dozen ar15 from dpms, twist?
I am no match shooter, just 35 years experience, but they perform after some experimentation the same and a bit better than the jacket ones.

Side note: My pet gun the parkerhale1200 308 with lead boolits up to 300 yards/330 meters, 3-5 inch.
No scope on it. No jackets allowed anymore! Just 22-25 bhn.
Both rifles were shot in prone position, no belt.

I use 16-18 bhn and 15,8 grains d060, there is no need to use pure lino.
Pure lino is ~35-40 bhn, for "full jacket" loads you can do easy with 22-25 bhn.
High velocity "full jacket" loads, yeah i use pure.

Sorry to say but still no fouling or a clogged up gaspipe.

Rcbs mold 55 gr.

@JBinMN, Soon i am in a casting session again, for all i care you pm me your address and i will send you some.
Tomorrow, i can figure out roughly how much it will cost me to send it to the usa.
Size .225, lube beeswax and lithium grease and aluminium homemade gc.
If you like of course.

Due to our laws i can NOT send you compleet ammunition, only the lead casts.
But you must do this anyway yourself: you only have to figure out two things:
Setting depth, and your start load.

With best regards.

Thanks very much for your offer!


I do not wish for you to be taking on the cost of doing so though, without more discussion between us.

I will be contacting you in the next day or so about it thru PM, rather than discussing here in this topic.

Thanks again!

Was in a playful mode, not really serious, cous of some stupid accident on the road.
Toke us 3 hours longer, there goes the serious mode, range almost closed.

Left target: prone shooting, little rapid fire.
Right target: standing shooting, little rapid fire.
Both positions shot with no belt, gloves or special jacket.
Just what you see, is what i shot, nice in a t shirt at 110 yards.
Upcoming holidays, i will do a thural cleaning and i will order a bore camera and or dismantle the gas tube for the non believers.

3 cents powder per shot, 15.7 grain D060 lovex
2.5 cent primer from gynex.
Gascheck free from freechexx device and coils, 10 dollar coil 10.000 gs.
Cases picked it up after a militaria drill on the range, all ggg and shot one time.

hmmm 6 cents, do i hear less?

Still very happy.
