Jupiter,
That's what I was wondering as the Garand was designed around 150 gr. bullet. I'm interested to know how it does for you. I was hoping the Carnauba Red lube (2700+ fps) would handle this...

Anyone using this in a Garand? Results?

Got mine last night. Very nice looking mold with the new upgraded pins. Fast shipping and good prices!

Jim,
I haven't been in here much lately since about the last time we PM'ed when you told me of your Dad's passing. It is just now I put 2 and 2 together that AZ-Stew was your Dad.

I met your Dad...

Just wondering if anyone has one and what your loading. Will the encore action handle hotter loads than the 1895 Marlin or at least as hot?
Can longer, heavier bullets be used, is there enough lead...

You may check with Buckshot, he has a kit that he makes that works quite well for hard to fit nose punches.

Michael,

Is the 350gr as heavy as you plan to go for the 444?

Great, thanks Craig!

Figure the 375gr would be max in the 444T but I do have the 444P that has the faster twist. Have you tried the 400Gr in a 444P? Wondering if the 18.5" barrel takes too much...

Craig,

I'm covered up to 350 Gr. but wanna get a 375 and 400gr mold. If you could only have one of each, which woulf you go with?

I can't remember a GB for either of these on here, do you think...

I made this post last night on the Marlin Owners board regarding my experience with the 338 Leverevolution ammo.

Rather than repost it here is the link:

I shot a smallish buck mulie a few weeks ago with my 338ME. I was very surprised by the result! I had him broadside at about 60 yards and hit him square in the right scapula. This was factory loads...

I've been trying to find a good place to start with these as I wanna use a 444 on my elk and deer hunts this fall. I've got H-4198, H335, W748, IMR 3031, IMR 4198, RL-7 on hand just to name a few.

I'm curious of what mold you are using.

I signed it, thanks for bringing to our attention.

+ 1count me in.

6-Cs is what I would like to get from him too, however, I believe he is only gonna do 2-Cs in the future because the demand wasn't there for the 6-Cs.

Sure, but why do you want to do that?

Thanks for the input guys. This stuff is very mixed up with nearly all very smal pieces. I am considering mixing the batch up very well and casting ingots with it. then having the NDE guys at work...

I had a bucket of "lead" given to me. It is scrap and appears to be from glass windows, maybe stained glass. It has an "H" shape if cross sectioned and is very pliable. Anyone have any idea what the...

Awesome Michael!

Good shootin'! I can't wait until the TLC379-235-RF mold is available. There's just something about the 375, 38-55 that appeals to me.

Yes, +1

John,
The guy just told me he had 6K pounds of these. He asked how much I wanted. I just emailed him asking the best price he could give me for them. I'll keep you guys posted.

ok, thanks for all the advice guys! :-D

So what can I do regarding the entrapped water possibility?
