I'm getting 1" - 2" groups with my NOE 360-154-WFNs using air-cooled COWW alloy (without gas checks) @ 1160 fps average with 4.6 grains of Titegroup in my Ruger 77/357. The NOE bullets are half a thousandth under the throat diameter, so I think they fit the gun. I want to add the gas checks and switch to WW296 (or maybe buy some 2400) and get the velocity up around 1500 - 1600 fps. Any thoughts about water dropping and/or sizing down bullets to work as well at higher velocity? I'm currently pan lubing with a one-time mixture of LLA, paraffin, paste wax and petroleum jelly and will mix up some BLL after I use the pan stuff up (no leading so far!).
