Can't report on any success with the BRP 378-310 mould today, at least with fairly warm loads (58gr Varget/61gr Varget), but the load I tried today with 4759 wasn't too shabby.
#2 alloy (Blammers stuff) w/c sized .379" Hornady checks, LBT blue soft.
First shot was over the chrony, 1998fps, second shot was on our 100 yd gongs (about 4" low), so came up on the scope 16 clicks then went to target. 4X nikon scope
First shot, after scope adjustment ,is the lower left hole, then next 4 went into a nice group. Loaded 37.9gr 4759, Winchester LRM primer, Federal nickle cases

Wonder if it took the first shot for the scope to "settle in", even though it shouldn't do that, but you never know.
4759 load was pleasant, Varget loads, not as much, but not bad. Gotta play some more with this beast. Will cast some with just ww's and try them too :)
