The best shooting boolit in my 8mm Mausers for me has been the Lee 175 until today.

Today's range session was with the BRP 326-200-Silhoutte boolit sized at .325 and coming in at 196.5 grains w/GC. Sorry, no pretty target pics as I was adjusting sight settings to zero in this boolit at 100 yds., but this boolit flew and tracked predictively on the target as I made adjustments. The nose comes in at .316 and appears to fit the throats of my mausers very well when seated only case neck deep. All rounds fed and chambered slick as any spitzer.

Anyone looking for a good fitting boolit for their military Mauser ought to give the BRP a look.

I am sorry, but I don't know who or what BRP is? Can you help a little?

I have shot the BRP 326-200-Silhouette boolit out of my 24/47 Yugo Mauser. Boolits were given to me by 45 2.1 to try. This design is a tack driver. 357Maximum, BaBore (the moldmaker) and 45 2.1 were there to see it.

Here's a pic of 357Maximum pointing to his group and mine both shot at 100 yard's with 45 2.1's boolits out of my rifle. Both groups were 5 shots with the issue iron sights.

Does anybody had a couple dozen of these bullet I could buy to see how they fit and run in my Persian 29]98 before I invest in the mold. Send me a PM if you can help.
