Thanks Bret, a buddy of mine has the Lee .338 I will see if he will loan it to me. As dropped the C329-205-1R comes out right around .332....just cast about 50 of them. I'll try 'em unsized.

Thanks Buckshot, Yep, slugged the bore on the Steyr three times, always comes out to .3295". Have not done a chamber cast, nor checked throat dimensions. I purchased five of these things from...

Weather finally permitted an opportunity to spend quality time at the range to work on two cast loads for my Enfield and my M95. Some interesting, conflicting results between the two.

First: 1941...

Bought over 20 of them in the last year to find three that were at or under .330" groove, plus meeting chamber dimensions. 16 of the ones that did not make my tolerance parameters ran anywhere from...

Buckshot, I had Lee open up my mould (C329-205-1R) a tad, that is why mine drop over .330", and yes, when I did the chamber cast I did a chamber OD dimension. It was .3655, whereas the spec calls out...

twotoe, this one slugs at .316 lands and .3295 grooves. Nothing wrong with accuracy, holds 1" groups at 60 yards with the Unique loads, just not enough to hold stability at 100+. With the slow <1500...

Guess we could assume that she is "full of it"!!

My Grandfather always had three compost pits going, rotating yearly. Remember pouring cow urine and other animal waste(including our own) and covering with straw. He'd come back in a year or so then...

Help! This is becoming frustrating. Trying to get a consistant, universal (either plinking or hunting in a pinch) load behind a Lee C329-205-1R cast bullet with gas check. This bullet drops at...

Need suggestions guys!

First, I have a M95 Steyr carbine with a mirror bore, slugged at .330" major dia.(grooves) and .3145 minor dia. (lands).

Second, casting WW + 10% tin added out of the Lee...

Getting ready to load some up too! But I want to use Unique. I sized my bullets to .331" and gas checked 'em, they weigh 208 grains with GC's. I'm thinking 14-15 grains of Unique should do the...

I have found that 15 grains of Unique behind a Lee 312 165 2R w/GC (drops at .314), sized to .312 works exceptionally well in both my 1941 Lithgow and my Mosins. No pressure signs, average of 1620...

I use this same bullet for my Mosin 91/30, my AK, my M44&M38, for my Type 99 Arisaka, and my .303 Enfield. For all of them except the 7.62 X 39 I have used 80% loads of H4895 with very mixed results....

I do quite a bit of reloading at the range, around my cabin, and even camping. I carry a Lee hand press with me in a knapsack quite often, along with a pound of powder. Depending on what gun I grab,...

Does any one have a simple, in the field way to attach gas checks to bullets? It is not convenient to carry a sizer ino the field just to attach the gas checks. Also, I load multiple calibers with...

32 grains of H4895, CCI large rifle primer, 150 gr LFNGC sized .309" = 2290 fps average over 20 cartridges. 33 grains (maxed out) of H4895, CCI LR primer, 170 grain Hornady JFN's @ .308" = 2305 fps...

Just find a .356, the only difference in the cartridge is one is rimmed, while the other isn't. Basically the same performance.

This is where ya'll hang'n out? Jeez, I thought you all were try'n to ditch me!

Try .284 GC's

That's sounds way too much! Give me the contact info and I'll talk some sense to the fella.
