Got a mold in through a trade and tried it out today. It's a 311414 150gr that drops @ .314 but sizes nicely to .310. I plan to use these in my 30-30 and my 300 Blackout. With WW Lead, they weigh approx. 158, and with the GC approx. 158.6.

Let us know how it works out on the 300 BLK.

Looks a lot like the Lee 312-155-2R. I've been playing around with that one in my 300 blk lately. Still working on load development so nothing conclusive yet.

I'll be watching this thread too for your results.

Those look kind of pointy for a 30-30 lever action. Be careful!

Point taken, to make a pun. Probably just use it with the 300 Blackout.

Shrapnel only hurts for a little while.

You could single feed them in the 30-30, keep one in the chamber and one in the tube.

Harrison, in the NRA publication, speaks often of how this boolit does not do well above 1400fps. Please report on progress.

Did Harrison have them GC'd and alloyed harder than Lyman #2? I don't have that report/paper. I will keep posted on this boolit.

Can't recall but I suspect so. Time will tell with your results.

Here it is mocked up and ready for the trial run. Comes in at 2.045" and GC'd. I will get some loaded this weekend and post a report.
