So something I found interesting is how limitations on cast bullets have happened. The current thing seems to be you cant' or shouldn't push a cast rifle bullet past 2000fps. However while looking through the Lyman cast bullets hand book 3rd edition from the 80's. Well..... not saying you need to push them at jacketed velocity but it's certainly more possible then most try to make it seem. Also must say it seems something happened where casting seems to have been dumbed down a little .Reading though this manual vs new stuff.... seems a lot is left out as far as casting for HV rifle and getting accurate loads. Iean the newest stuff I've seen in print about cast rifle loading basically says 1800fs to 2000fps is what your gonna max out on and you might get half dext accuracy, live with it. Mean while the older stuff it's telling you how you COULD make speed demon super accurate loads.I mean it does seem most casting has moved over to pistol which honestly doesn't seem to need as much to get the results people want .
So what happened?
