762-39 check size

[temac]

I ordered the Lee mould with single lube grove for my SKS what size Hornady check do I need?

[Hickok]

.30 caliber GC.

Sounds like you ordered the C312-155-2r mold. Very good for 7.62x39.

I just cast the very same bullet the Lee 155 grain. So far I've just coated them. Need to size and check them. What's a good powder for this bullet? New to reloading for the ak. Thanks for any advice.

I have good results with IMR 4198 with this boolit, but my 7.62 is a bolt action Ruger. Don't know how well it would cycle an AK.

AA 1680 is a great powder for the AK if you can find some.

I can find reloader 7. That's about it around me.

I think this will work for you, good info.

Great info thank you very much for pointing me in the right direction. I do have a half a bottle of 2400. And access to other powders he lists. Again thank you Jeff.

I know nothing about the Lee mold but all my .30 cal. and .303 bullets take .30 cal. Gcs.
