Good Morning From Australia
This is my first venture into cast bullets, I hav a company Im happy with and have a few questions for the group as I'm truly a beginner when reloading cast bullets. I use two Marlin's with 24" & 16.5 micro groove BBL's, is there and train of thought about cast lead in micro groove BBL's Re: fowling, cleaning or depletion of accuracy
this is the company I'm going through (https://blackwidowprojectiles.com.au/) and the below information in on their web site,
We're an established manufacturer of top quality, competition grade projectiles for target, pistol and rifle shooting specializing in Hard Cast. We've been in production for over 5 years, being a small family run business, who take great pride in our products.
We use only virgin lead alloy for our Hard Cast projectiles, which are coated with Hi-Tek coating. This coating is guaranteed by the manufacturer at up to 3000 fps. With this coating you can put the projectiles through the smash test, by placing the projectile onto a hard surface and smashing it with a hammer; you'll find that the coating doesn't peel, crack or flake off.
I have attached a picture of the possible projectile I'm looking at, the 165gn RNFP longer so more stable /accurate CORRECT ????. The company has told me they can size to 309 for the 32-20 115gn round as well any thoughts on the smaller lighter bullet.
Gas Checks GC's do I or don't I need them on coated hard cast bullets and if i do go with RNFP where is the seating position. So, any and all wisdom is appreciated for this beginner from Down Under.
