Hello all,

I load cast bullets for the 300 Blk. I was using Dillon 30 carbine powder Funnel which will bell the case along with NOE .310 expanding plug in my 650. The "AK" funnel will not bell. I've contacted Lathesmith to make a 30 carbine "M" die powder Funnel but he is asking me for measurements, since he hasn't made one before. If someone could help me out here with the measurements, it would be greatly appreciated.

The bullets are usually cast with 50/50 +2% (pure/wheel weights and 2% pewter) sized to .3095 shoot great.


Thanks,
Harold

I use the AK funnel to drop the powder but use a NOE expander to expand the neck. You've got five spots on the 650. That's plenty.

1. Resize, deprime.
2. Seat primer drop powder.
3. Expand neck.
4. Seat bullet.
5. Remove neck expansion/crimp.
