Ok, this is my first gas-checked mould. I slugged the first 3" of my Marlin 336 micro-grooved 30-30.. The slug measures .305 and .307 ( lands and grooves)as you rotate the slug in the caliper.
My mould is dropping the boolits at .311 aircooled WW. I'm going to water drop some next week when I get back from a trip.
My question is: If you were to shoot them unsized, how would you seat the GC?
I have a .309 lee sizer that makes very pretty GC'd boolits. I'm going to shoot them on Monday and see how they do sized and lubed with JPW or LLA. (only lubes on hand)
I have the cast bullet data from Lee's 2nd manual. They list loads with H4198. I have 8# of IMR 4198. I know not to swap data and powders for heavy loads but for medium or reduced loads, where can I find data or info for this powder. I also have some Unique, Reddot, Greendot Bluedot, Universal, etc to play with if I can find printed data.
Any info you can point me toward is appreciated.
