I have gone on a bullet casting binge on New Years Day for the last 5 years or so, and has kind become a tradition for me.
I cast mostly for handgun but picked up a 160gn TL mold for my SKS, and a 6 holer 429-200 RF for my 44 mag. I have had no small amount of grief with Lee molds dropping undersized bullets. I have had to send several back, and I will say, Lee has always made good on it.
Tonight, I fired the pot and found I got 2 good molds right out of the box! The 160gn drops right at .312", as advertised, and the 200 grainer drops right at .431"!
Kinda renews my faith in them!:mrgreen:
I know the 200gn RNFP bullet shoots good in my Tracker, as I have used a 2 hole mold for awhile, but am really curious as to the 160gn TL mold in my Norinco SKS.
