Has anyone tried the shorter 243 bullets.
I was looking at the NOE 243 molds and see they offer a short,84 grain mold. I was wondering if anyone has tried these in 243. My twist is 1 in 9.5.. thanks..

I shot the Lyman 244496 at 84 gr with good results.

I have the NOE 245 75 FN
I have shot them most recently in a Savage Axis (using Lyman "cast boolit" data), so speed is well below jacketed data.

Thanks for the replies.. Appreciate it..gave up on trying to size the noses. Gonna shoot them as is..with a thin powder coating..
