Going to be using water-quenched WW for this. Lube will be Lar's Carnuba Red. Looking for a good 180-210 grain boolit for my Savage 12 308 Winchester. I'm also considering the 311299, as well. Looks like I missed out on the group buy on that one.

My Savage has a 10" twist. Forgot to mention that.

One of the beauties of Lees moulds is that they're cheap enough to try. If it doesn't work you can always put it on Ebay and get $11.43 more than you paid for it! Give it a try. I would think someone with some background with this combo will chime in soon.

rvpilot,
I shoot that Lee bullet in both a TC Icon in .308 & a Finn M-39 (mine casts .3115), mostly with 16.5-2400. The Icon seems to hold under 1moa & the M-39 apx 1.5 ..Dennis
