There was a 20% off special over the 4th and I cratered on this:
311-152-SP-L1 2 cavity GC Brass
Now I have to do new alloy, load, etc... But... Looks like I could get 2500+ fps if I do it right...
Might need a new gun with a slower twist...

Everything in life is a trade-off.
It's hard to gain in one area without giving up something in another.

Political correctness is a national suicide pact.
I am a sovereign individual, accountable
only to God and my own conscience.
I have to immediately delete emails from places like that when money is tight. Otherwise, I get sucked in the black hole of more, more, more....
I've got moulds I haven't even cast with yet, I don't need more.
Ah, ..... the dilemma of need vs want. I suffer greatly from the condition.
reread bookworm, again and again.. and again.......and again............and again ........ and again.........
A solution to a problem you didn't know you had!
That's about the only complaint I've got with them .

Without trial we cannot learn and grow . It is through our stuggles that we become stronger .
Brother I'm going to be Pythagerus , DiVinci , and Atlas all rolled into one soon .
I like reloading, from developing loads, gathering components, shooting to recording. So for me a new mold is a win-win situation. A new "adventure"...
I'm on a new quest right now; shot gun and shotshell reloading. I haven't fired a shotgun since I sold my Ithaca 37 in '80, but I stumbled on a shot gun on sale and I wanted it. I certainly don't need a shotgun and ammo around here is relatively cheap, and I have no need, but I wanna...

My Anchor is holding fast!
That is a great mould for the 300BO! I have been shooting it cast with 94/3/3, proper gas check and PC. Want to give it a try in the old '03, but have had to much fun in the AR with it.
Yeah, I ended up with a Saeco 315 clone. The more I learn about actually fitting bullets to the gun, the more I think this bullet is a real gem.
Gas check version. I hear the Saeco 315 might one of the best plain base 30 caliber bullets ever made, but the gas check makes life easier.
The NOE sales are no help....us mould addicts on this site are surrounded by enablers .
When a NOE sale notice shows up in my E-Mail I can only hope it's not something I "need".
I've still got a NOE Elmer Keith signature mould in 41 magnum that I keep on my desk to look at , too pretty to dirty just yet....as soon as the newness wears off , I'll think about it...maybe .
