I think this was an oldie! Any luck with it for plinking? I'm thinking 7X57 lite loads, might even plane base half the cavities. Thanks Aaron

Thinking on ordering it if it worked.

I have one of these molds. The following is a record of my first load using this bullet in my Browning Medalion 280 Rem. I figured this was about as good as it was going to get for my shooting ability so no further load development was attempted.

Wouldn't you know, I just had to try another shot into that 5 shot group.

Thanks, that looks very,very promising. What yardage if I might ask, last night when I looked I thought 25 or 50 and that boolit will work. This morning I'm seeing 2.076 MOA and that 6th shot and thinking THAT BOOLIT WILL WORK!!!
Thanks again Aaron
