Got to do some testing at the range today with the lee 309-150f and 309-170f. Also shot some 230g of unknown origin, so I wont speak much on those. They were all loaded with Unique and run through my NEF Handi Rifle 30-06. I did mouse fart loads for the 170f with 5- 5 round loads ranging from 10.0g-12.0g working up at .5g increments. Unfortunately, my scope was not very dialed in for the 170g, so I used those to get the scope on paper. Grouping seemed decent once on paper and was fun to shoot the 30-06 with such little recoil. The 150g were loaded at 17.0g and 17.5g. Best grouping was with 17.0g. My fifth shot was operator error. The 150 & 170's were powder coated, gas checked, and sized to .309. These were the first boolits I've ever cast & shot, so I am pleased with the results thus far.
