Flatlander. See my answer to your post in the other forum that you posted this question. I have had good results with the Lyman bullet, duplicating factory loads. I haven't tried the RCBS bullet yet. They cast out at 188 gr. in my alloy. Should be able to duplicate .303 Savage spec with that one.
(190 gr. bullet at 1950 fps.) So far my shooting has been done with 20" barreled carbines. Just got a 26" Canadian Centenial. Will have to see how that one works out when I get a peep sight for it. BTW. Try W-748. It works pretty good for me.
