I made new brass for my 30BR Long and tested some this past weekend.
Here are the targets. 10 shots were XCB bullets in Lyman #2 alloy and 5 shots were Lyman 31141 bullets in COWW plus 1% tin. All were loaded with IMR 3031. Lube was NRA formula 50/50. They were not chronographed. Next time out I will be testing 31141 in linotype and pushed a little faster with BLC2. The 31141's were keyholing a little. I might need to get my own XCB mold.
It was a little windy and I did not have wind flags so that added to the horizontal stringing. The distance to the target was 100 yards.
