Well I finally won one of my clubs military matches this past Sunday. I've been in the money a few times and won the bench rest pot several times but my new cast boolits finally got the job done.
I was shooting my Finn 91/30, 7.62X54R with the Lee C185-312-R Gas check boolit straight wheel weight air cooled non sized and tumble lubed with Lee LA. Powder was 2400 at 18grs. and OAL 2.860 seating depth seemed to be key in getting this load to shoot, velocity averaged 1670fps.
The matches consist of two five round bench rest targets and one ten round standing man target all at 100yds. Any as issued military rifle with iron sights. My smallest group in this match was just under 1.5" check out the results at the following link. http://flanders.pippin.ch/forum/foru...p?TID=391&PN=1
I am new to boolit casting but with all the good advice on these forums its made taking on a new challenge a pleasure without all the blind stupid mistakes of doing it on your own.
