tomorrow if all goes well i will be heading out to the rangeand just for you kcatto i will put the targets out at 100 yds. and post the results for you. all rounds were loaded on a Forster Co-Ax press using the seater die from my Lee collet die set with a light crimp using a Lee regular seat crimp die with seater plug removed. also when i sized the cases i pulled the expander ball from my Forster Fl sizing die and used the Lyman M die to open up the neck and also flare the case mouth.

seeing how these bullets aren't shooting too good with conventional lube i am moving to plan B. which is now i will Moly coat these lead bullets and see if yhis will help. if it works out i can then shoot lead or jacketed Moly coated bullets and still only have to just use a patch with Ed's Red to clean up the bore. friday will tell if this will be so. with these lead i Moly then size and crimp the gas check then Moly again to coat the gas check. these are waiting for the second coating.
