Anyone here with experience with this bullet?
Resembles the 311299 except the body appears to be a bit shorter with one lube groove. My copy drops a COWW bullet .314" on the bands and .302" on the nose. I assumed when I got the mold that maybe the 190 was bullet weight but in the COWW alloy this thing weighs 218 gr lubed and gas checked. Guess I misunderstood NEIs numbering system. Regardless, my 4 groove 03A3 barrel seems to love this bullet
I size the nose to .301" for easier chambering with the bullet body in the case neck.
