Anyone tried this mold? Good, bad, indifferent? Long range.

Thanks

If that is their stock 200 grain mold, and I think it is, then I have had very good luck with it in my 30/40 Krag, Swiss 1911, and Swiss 1889. Long throats are good with this one.

One of the best shooting .30 bullets that comes from a new $18.69 double cavity mold that you can get your hands on.

You have to hope that the one that is sent to you will cast with a nose dia. between .301 and .302.

When everything is right, this is what it will do out of my .308 Win. at 50 yards, 5 shots.

I use it in my .30-30, .303 Savage, .308 and 7.5x55SR, It does very well in all 4.
I load it with 34gr BLC-2, 2000fps for a factory+ load in my '99, .303 Savage.
The factory is a 190gr RN jacketed at 1860fs from my 20" barrel carbine.
