I bought a Lee 223 6 cavity mold for the 55 grain bullets years ago, and I casted several hundred good bullets with it. Lubed them with 45/45/10 and gas checked them. I also purchased a Savage Axis Gen 1 right after they come out, just to shoot these bullets in. It is 1/9 twist I believe if I remember right. Problem is after rearranging the reloading room, I found all these bullets and remembered the Axis, which I have not got around to shooting yet. I have these powders available at this time, Unique, Bullseye, 5744 which about covers the cast range I guess. I have some around 52gr with lino added and some around 58gr range lead, best I remember anyway. Sure is tough getting old aint it What I am looking for is the best load in the Axis for 50 to 100 yards, somewhere around 1800 - 2000 fps. Any ideas would be appreciated, and I searched all over the place for a load on here, but not sure where to start with my twist and powders available? Not sure if it is worth the effort or time to do this, but since they are already casted and checked, I might as well give it a try, if it does not work out, I guess it will be a learning experience.
I may also PC these little fellows if I can do it without having to stand them little boolits up to get good coverage.
