CCI Standard Velocity. CCI Mini Mag HP. CCI Mini Mag Solid. See a trend here? Also, Federal Auto Match, Aguila SE HV solid. Armscor HV HP. I have about 30,000 rounds of these and another 15,000...

I have a RGSC. I do not shoot cast with it but I did work up a dandy 130gr copper solid load with 3031 that shoots into less than .5 MOA. I bought a few thousand of the bullets from...

Very interesting. I have a Browning X-Bolt HCS that I plan to use next season in my club's cast boolit silhouette match. I worked up a similar load. NOE 140gr. bullet, 18.8grs. IMR4227, ogive length...

I agree with this. For children who are learning initial gun handling, the 22lr. remains my go-to choice, preferably in a single-shot or manual repeating firearm.
For adults who may have specific...

I am sitting on 45,000 rounds of 22lr and can barely keep myself from ordering another couple cases. The problem is that recently I decided to return to shooting still challenge in the open rimfire...
Voted 30.06 but 308 or 357 would do me just as well.

Ok. The silence has me a worried that my educated guess may not be as educated as I think it is. Nobody has any info. on this? :-(

I have several lbs of 800x left over from my 10mm days. I would like to use it in cast bullet 308, or 7.62x39, or 300 Blackout loads. I made an educated guess that in 308, 13.0 grains would be a...

Ditto. I have the same setup. I have a few trim dies. I have never used any of them.

Buy a rifle for shooting offhand and learn that discipline. Lots of fun banging plates offhand with a sporter
-weight rifle. So many "sniper rifles" these days and very few snipers. Perplexing ...

I bought very near a lifetime supply of 22lr back in 2009, and I definitely bought a lifetime supply of .177 and .22 lead pellets. It was not that difficult. I have forgotten how many cases I...

Correction. The LAST president was the best gun, ammo and component salesman in U.S. history! No contest whatsoever.

W296/H110 is a great powder for supersonic 300 Blackout loads. I have used it with 110, 120, 125, 130 grain bullets. You have been offered excellent information about NOT using it for reduced loads...

RGSR 308 with composite stock. Can't pick it up until 2/8.
Forum: Factory & Surplus Powder
I am currently using A5744 and it is great. 23.0grs under a 185gr Saeco #311 gives 1930fps, ZERO leading and 1 MOA accuracy. But A5744 is $35/lb in my neck of the woods. That is no bueno! Maybe I...
Forum: Factory & Surplus Powder
Mustang, thanks for the info. SD of 63 is pretty inconsistent. Maybe these WC powders are not the best idea for 308 after all. But of course, I will have to try WC844 just to see how it works, lol.
Forum: Factory & Surplus Powder
For a cast bullet shooter, that was a big score right there!

Unique. I would then buy factory ammo for stuff like .223 and .308.
