Title: Re: My gaudy Garand

Here's a couple of the cast bullets I was shooting the other day.  The ogive is .305" tapering to .307" just ahead of the top driving band.  Seated  down till about half that top band is in the neck, you can see why it filled the throat!  I have this mold in 3 sizes, the original Eagan, and both a .314 and .316 NOE base pour version.  The .316 version is for a well worn Mosin that I got cheap.  I have a 6mm version of this bullet too, and was able to get very good, bug hole accuracy, from a 1/8 5r Obermeyer barreled 6x45 with the bullet going 2100fps.  I sorta figured I could get the alloy going faster in a 1/10 and maintain  accuracy.  Now to get that gas system tightened up!
