OK, I know the modern composition of Linotype, at least where I live anyway. I get great accuracy from my pistols using Linotype in molds from CastBulletEngineering.com.au and AccurateMolds.com. But I am ready to use boolits in my 375 Ruger and 45-70 rifles on Asian Water Buffalo in the top end of Australia. I am a noob to this board but I have enjoyed great success on big game with (a word they say I should not use that starts with the letter "j"). I am genuinely looking forward to taking buff with my own boolits, but I have some questions and I will really appreciate your help.
1) I read and hear about the brittleness of Linotype. Does anyone here have experience with Linotype on large game? If you do, please tell me about your experiences.
2) Should I just put myself out of my misery and go straight to Lyman #2?
3) Generally speaking, will L#2 cast slightly smaller in the same mold with all other factors being equal?
I will really appreciate any answers.
