My load for my "52" is 2.5gr of 700X. It has always done better than I can shoot. I shoot my own hard cast wadcutter (Lyman 35891, 358495 or H&G#50). After casting, I dump the bullets from the mould directly into a bucket of cold water. The only time I ever got leading was when I loaded the wadcutters backwards (so as to flush them with the case trim instead of deep seating them so the little hump was even with the case trim). I have no idea why this happened but I have never done that again. Quantrill
