here is a Pic of my Nagants group at 100m using a CBE 313-215 GC'd using 32gr of Varget The load is doing around 1600fps and seems to be happy no leading or other issues

What is the group size for the 8 shots?

That's a great bullet. My No4 MkII loves it.

Jim is sending me his hybrid version, 315 218 to test and evaluate. It's a lil bigger in the girth.

Hi Jeff nice work if you can get it!!!!! I would like to be able to try that bullet in one of my oversize bores (I have one at .316") the main group would be around 2" the fliers were probably me I have Jims 316-240 that I have to try out when I get a chance I have a nice No1 MK111 with a new Heavy Barrel that I will try it in

Very good results for the M44. I would like one.
The 316 240 is a GREAT bullet. I have a double cavity mould and it casts and shoots beautifully.
Are you in AU or US?

SMLE, My 311332 lyman drops at .3135 and I shoot it as cast in both my long and short Mosins over between 18-20 gr 2400. Have never slugged either bores, but they both shoot better with these loads than I am capable of with old eyes. Also makes a real nice looking load. Good luck!
