I’ve got 1 can blue dot left , I use that in my CZ 527 223 with 69 SMKs at 1050 fpsTry some Sierra 150gr “30-30” bullets. Very accurate at any 308 speed. I use a lot of BE-86 in cast and/or subsonic loads only because I have very little Unique, Herco and Blue Dot left…
Not yet. Just getting started with this project.Have you tried the 175 gr SubX .30 caliber bullets?
Perhaps not enough pressure to seal case mouth/shoulder against chamber permitting gases pushing rearward.What is everyone’s thoughts on why this casing looks like this? Round did not go off initially and charging handle was hard to open the bolt.
This. Kapok worked great for me. Be sure and take the weight of the Kapok into account when loading rounds. 1 gr of Kapok goes a long way. It definitely helped with my shot to shot consistency speed wise. Good luck and keep us updated.A lot of cast bullet shooters that shoot small powder loads will put powder in the case then stuff dacron fiber in to keep the powder against the base.
