    These are looking promising. The base casts at 0.314", and the nose is at .308". I've got about 200 of them cast, so I'll see about powder coating and loading a handful of them tomorrow and see how that goes. I won't be able to shoot until next week though.

    My 311 mold cut to 308 and powder coated is fitting fine in my 300 blackout , I had it cut so I could skip sizing if possible now to shoot a string of 3 different loadings and see results , wish you luck and from size of your bullet and throat you are sizing them down , when I get the new lee press I will revisit my other mold that was to fat it was ending up at 312 and would not chamber .

    Well fellas, I never did find a mold that gun would shoot. I'd really like to be able to shoot cast in it, especially with reloading components like bullets getting harder to find. I have a decent stock of them right now, but I'd be much happier being able to make my own.

    Do you think I should have the throat reamed? How much would that cost, and who could I send it to to do that?
