What's your favorite cast boolit for 1:16 twist ,35 Whelen?

The title says it all.

Here is mine, which I use in a .35/.30-30, with 8 grains of Bullseye for subsonic blooper, and compressed caseful of 4064, RL15 or Varget as a hunting load. Tom could cut this with a GC base if you wanted. No issue with up to 255-grain bullet in a 16" twist.

Interesting ... 35/30-30. Whast kinda velocity?

With jacketed bullets potential is identical to .35 Remington in same barrel length, about 2000 fps with 200-grainers.

With my plainbased cast bullet my objective was to approximate .38-55 ballistics, so the hunting load goes about 1600 fps with the 245-grain bullet, with no leading issues using 4064, RL15 or Varget as stated.

Nice. Sounds like a hoot
