I am thinking of adding a new mold to the fleet. I was looking at NOE's 22 cal 55 gr'er. I will be using it both a bolt 223 and Black guns. Twist on them range from 8/1 to 12/1. Please tell me your story, good or bad. I have been using my Lyman 438 and Bator in my Hornet with some real luck with Monotype at 100+ yards and getting min. of Praire Dog with the Lyman. Thanks for your help. Martin

I've been playing around with 3 diff. boolits at 100 yds and med. velocity, results are not so good, so I shortened the range to 50 yds. and reduced the loads, one of the three was a cut above...the RCBS-55gc. All were fired in a CPA .218 Mashburn Bee, and the MX-3 62gc. and the much lighter #225107, were not close to the RCBS-55, so that would be my recommendation.

Excess650, Thanks for the info and if you are struggling with a Milspec trigger in a Black gun.

I put this in all my AR's builds if I am not using adjustable and for $10.99 how can you go wrong and easy to do.
