Just a photo of the first casting; not bad for an old man.
Bullet weighs 179 grains unchecked or lubed; .3115 as dropped from ACWW.

Life's biggest tragedy is we get old too soon, and wise too late.
Nice Job. The 311041 is an excellent bullet for the 30s.
I wait patiently........well sort of. Nice looking boolit, what will you be putting these thru?
Longone
30-30 both Win and Marlin; 30-30 Contender; 308, and 30-06.
I already tried a similar bullet in the 30-06 with Unique and it shot good. I'm hoping to work up a good load in the Contender for coyote. One cavity is HP, can't wait to try these out.
