Hi all! I've gotten back into bullet castu g and reloading after a long break. For my ruger m77 Hawkeye in .30-.06, I'm using a boolit from my lee 309 113 grain mould. my powder is 13 grains of green dot ) as a starting load). I am sizing these and gas checking them
My problem is, chambering is difficult. Accuracy was poor and the bolt was hard to close. Upon inspection, i discovered the rifling engraved on the ogive. My solution is to seat the bullet deeper than the 2.900 tha td the Lyman manual states. Thoughts? Im not showing any over pressure signs iand am at a starting load.
