I have a few questions about casting for the 7.62. I've only ever cast for pistol to this point. Had success with that so far. Just bought an AK and I'd like to try casting for those now. I've been bouncing around the net. Reading what folks are doing out there. I found the following:
Folks are recommending a couple Lee Molds
1. C312-155-2R
2. C312-160-2R
I'm confused though on post casting. With pistol I size the cast bullets. I assume the same for these. I've read in a couple places to purchase the following kit:
"Lee Lube and Size Kit 311 Diameter"
Other folks are saying that sizing is not needed with .312. Is this true?
Also, I assume I need gas checks on these cast bullets. This is something I have not done before. In looking into that I read that the Lee 311 Size Kit is too small to add gas checks for these cast bullets I'm considering. Is this true?
