1.) 3 different alloys including pure linotype
2.) 4 different seating depths
3.) Bullseye, Unique, H-110, IMR 4227, Herco, and AA#7 in varying weights that gave velocities from 1000-
1600 fps.
4.) small pistol, small rifle, and small rifle magnum primers
5.) neck sizing and full length sizing
6.) 3 different sizing diameters of the bullets--.257, .258, and .259
7.) TWO different moulds--mine and bullets cast from my buddy Gunny's mould.
I experimented with 2 different rifles and both have perfect bores---A Winchester Model 53 and a Marlin 1894. My buddy Gunny has a Winchester 1892 SRC that also refuses to shoot this bullet. His rifle also has a perfect bore. The Winchesters have 1-12" twist and the marlin has a 1-15" twist.
All loads with the RCBS bullet show signs of slight yawing.
Both rifles slug out at .256-.257
Both rifles shoot the Remington 86 gr. jacketed bullets into near moa at 100 meters----I HATE jacketed bullets
Both rifles are extremely tempermental with cast loads with only the loads that have velocities in the 1350-1600 range showing ANY kind of accuracy and the accuracy is super good---at 50-60 meters. At 100 meters, I am getting 6-10" groups.
As you can see, I "think" I have covered all of the bases except I have yet to try them in a Remington Model 25 that WILL shoot the Lyman 70 gr. gc into 2" at 100 meters. I need a cast bullet for a 25-20 levergun for pistol caliber silhouette.
I've tried all of the rest of the calibers so I am just playing around here. Well? Any experience with this bullet?------------Thanks guys
