308 Win. , Remington 700, heavy barrel rifle, Lee 312-155-2r cast boolits, powder coated, gas checked,( weight after checked and PC is 163 grains) CCI 200 primer, 40.0 grains IMR 4895.
Distance was 465 yards, laser range finder checked, when I did my part it rang the 8” plate with authority! My friend whose place we were shooting, asked,” a cast lead bullet.” You’re gonna shoot that far with a cast lead bullet? Yes, yes I am, gonna shoot that far with a cast boolit!!! When all said and done, he was convinced that lead bullets are just as capable as jacketed bullets!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know, no video it didn’t happen, but I’m trying to load this videos now.
I love this hobby! More results later after more shooting.
I forgot to add these were sized to .310” and col was 2.80” if I remember correctly! Important details for sure! Sorry about that, guys.
Oh, by the way, I didn’t have much luck at 950 yards!! Lol
