Okay,
I've got a new SRH in 480 Ruger and wondering if any others here have the same and what boolits you like. I've got a Lee 400 grain mold that drops #2 clone alloy at .476"dia and my cylinder throats are .4795 up to .480. Thats where things go south as the thread crush area of the brl is .475 so barrel lapping is eneviable. Have all ready started that process and it will be a couple hundred rounds from what i'm seeing so far. Anyway back to your favorite casts, and has anyone tried an LFN desgn say 355gr up to 375gr with about a 73% meplat and nose length of .450" to crimp and would this boolit need a GC or could it be PB?
I'm fishing for ideas based on experience with this cartridge.
Thanks for your time guys and great site.
