Loaded some .308/7.62 x 51 using the RCBS 30-165-Sil Boolit for testing in one of my M1a's. Load was 41.5 Grains of WC860, with a 4.0 Grain Unique Kicker over the Primer. (Load Data and Performance Sheet is attached as a PDF).
Following is a comparison of shot strings for my .308/7.62 military ball load, and a Cast Boolit Load using the RCBS 30-165-Sil Boolit. (Click on picture to enlarge)
The five round Mil-Ball group was approximately 1.5 inches by 2.5 inches. The 9 round cast boolit group was 3.5 inches by 2.75 inches. An OK start, I'll be searching to shrink the group. Some may find it an OK group for plinking or cheap practice with a mil-surp powder load, as is. I get much smaller groups in my bolt guns with a similar load.
There is not a significant amount of Load data for the RCBS 30-165-Sil boolit; others might find this useful to develop their own start for WC860 or WC872 using the RCBS 30-165-Sil Boolit.
