    Favorite cast boolit and load for. 25-06?

    I'm just starting to play around with cast in my Rem 700 mtn rifle in .25-06, and I'm asking what boolit and load have you found to be the most accurate in your rifle(s)?
    Thanks for any help.

    The 257312 running 1800-2000 work best for me.

    RCBS 100gn PC'd and GC'd works in all my 1/4 bores.

    What powders are you guys using with the 257312 and RCBS 25-100?

    If you have a shortage of Lead, that might be a good candidate to get off into casting Zinc.
    You can get right up to jacketed speeds with it, and quite a few folks have already switched over to it.

    OK People. Enough of this idle chit-chat.
