50-90 Rolling Block Bullet

[7mmmag]

I got to shoot my 50-90 with the 650 gr bullet from Montana Bullets , I loaded 100 gr of Swiss 1F and got a velocity of 1346 fps which shot into a 2.04 " 3 shot group . I know there are several factors but I was needing some ballpark moa figures or let me know where to look and or how figure. I looked at Hornady and used a .512 DGS bullet for my 1st try . Thanks

I think theres a post on BPCR net with a mould you are looking for.

Thank You , I did see that and there was a problem with their site so I couldn't get a hold of them . I ordered a Brooks Mould , in fact I just started casting this morning and I must say I am Impressed !! I am in west central IL also . Thanks

I got my Brooks mould and had a chance to cast some bullets , my first try with bottom pour was not good but I borrowed a ladle and things worked out well ! I haven't casted many bullets but I will say I have been VERY impressed with my mould !! It seems to cast all of the bullets very constant . Thanks

So now that has transpired I need a mold but Hock .512650 BPS is not available so what would my options be ? Many Thanks Jason

Looking for a 512 GG 650 grain bullet mould similar to Hoch...Who has one?? Done with PP-ing

Did you guys ever find one of these Hoch moulds?

If the 45-70 is the 30-06 Govt. of the Black Powder Cartridge Rifle (BPCR) hunting world, then the BPCR 50-90 Sharps Straight counter part is the 375 H&H. The big 50 is a stump buster.
