Not new to casting as I have been casting BPCR bullets for many years, however, I picked up a new rifle. A Winchester 1885 chambered in 30-40 Krag with grooves that slugged right at 308. Have a .310 gas check mould for an approximate 220 grain bullet and will be using WC872 powder to start with. Have plenty of virgin pure lead and tin on hand along with 16-1/20-1 ingots.
Not having experience outside of black powder bullets I would like to know what would be a good alloy to start with for the combination of powder, bullet and rifle above?
Thank you Gentlemen,
