Using what for an alloy?

[tbierley]

That bullet is loaded with IMR 4895 at 21gr. The alloy is wheel weights. After you powder coat and cook at 350 for 15 min. I gas check first then powder and size at 224. I have shoot this bullet at 200 yds and had no leading on the bolt head or gas tube. Will post a pic later of the target at 200 yds. And it feeds better in my AR than the Bator bullet.

So this is really a different bullet than the bator? Looks a lot like it being a RF and all.

Here are some pics at 200 yds. This is at the new CMP range.

I actually just saw this mold for sale today. I seem to be a little behind. Grouping looks nice for 200. what was the size ? What velocity are those loads running. Also what barrel twist ?
