I'm interested in starting to cast bullets for my .300 Blackout. (I have never don any casting before)
I have always reloaded lead for my pistols, and never had any concerns, all of the bullets I used were commercial products.
But now I'm thinking that I would like to start learning this skill.
My question and concerns are.
1. Do I have to worry about leading when shooting these through an AR platform rifle?
2. Is there anything I can do to reduce this possibility.
3. I have heard that the subsonic rounds produce less of this leading possibility, but they won't cycle consistently in my rifle. I don't have a suppressor and can't get one in my state.
4. Any recommendations for a bullet mold that produces good results in the .300 Blackout
5. Does anyone have load data they would be willing to share that they use with this caliber?
Thanks for any help you can provide
