Hi all,
Im new to CB, after read this forum i decide to start cast my bullets.
Firearms : Rossi 92 357 mag
Equipment :
LEE pot
Caliber RCBS .358
Mold 2 Cav. RCBS .358 158grs RN
Lub RCBS
Lead :
I have WW and from range + tin.
My 1st alloy is : 49% WW + 49% Range + 2% tin. (quantity 280 bullets)
Harness is 9 (the same day i cast) for water drop.
Primer : normal (not magnum)
Powder : universal
I do reload test from minimum to maximum and over maximum with great attention. ( I already reload rifle but with coper bullet, lead is an other world).
I start to be accurate to 25 m with 1400 fps to 1500 fps. i can go faster and be safe.
My problem is than the barrel lead a lot in the 1st " from chamber.
At less fps its totally not accurate.
At this point, i dont know if its because im to fast or if im to slow (not pressure needed).
Or if the problem come from the barrel dimension, than is close to .3555 and bullet at .358.
Or else ?
Thx.
Tesq.
