Has anyone ever seen or heard of a steel 3 or 4 cavity GC mold that comes out about .312 - .314 weighing around 123 grain in hollowpoint?
If that draws a blank has anyone ever seen a 2 cavity mold with that description.
The rifle is on order and I'm getting nervous. I think I need a total of two molds:
- 123 grain .312 - .314 in HP for self defense and a
- 145-160 grain .312 - .314 in FP for deer
If not steel I would go to NOE for aluminum. I'll double check with Al but I believe +/- 125grain HP isn't available. He does have a nice brass 4 cavity FB in 166 / .314 but its not available at this time. Push comes to shove I'll have to just sit and wait on availablity for that to solve the deer round, but the 123 +/- HP has been hard to find. Must be looking in the wrong places.
Would the +/- 123 grain HP make sense as a group purchase?
Both boolits would run in a Ruger Mini 30 7.62x39, 16" barrel with a 1 in ten twist. As always, thanks for your patience. Bill.
p.s. By the way, this'll be my first attempt at HP casting.
