Was finally able to connect on a late season doe with a cast boolit out of my 1894CB. The mold is as stated in the thread title cast with straight range scrap measuring 11BHN and weighing 262gn. It is loaded with 10.5gr of Unique at 1310 FPS. The shot was 53 yards. Complete pass through, deer ran 45 yards and dropped in eyesight. I was not able to recover the bullet to evaluate expansion. Given the exit hole size I don’t think it expanded great, but looking at the heart there had to be some level of expansion. I am going to try 50/50 +2% in my next batch and see if I can get some test results on some hogs to compare. Overall I am pleased for my first kill with cast (I have only been casting for a few months).
