    .30 Cal Gas checks

    I had a Ideal 311466 mold given to me and made some bullets lastnight to see how it worked and what exactly I had. Makes a nice bullet but need some gas checks for it apparently so I've been looking and most places that have them are out of stock, anyone have a line on where I can find some??? This bullet should work good in my 308s, 30-06 and the sons 300 Savage. Thanks

    If I knew any place I'd buy a box myself.

    I've heard good things about this store, but never ordered from them myself:

    I removed my earlier post that had misinformation posted in it .
    Sage's Outdoors are really good company to deal with .

    They still show some aluminum and some copper gator gas checks in stock for 30 cal. this morning. Not sure what the difference in the gators and plain copper is.

    Gator is a brand name, made by Larry Blackmon.
