I shoot some 155 gr cast out of my SKS ahead of 8 gr of Unique.
Nice plinking load, Will not operate the action so need to manual eject.
Thats fine though. Who wants to chase valuable 7,62x39 brass being flung to high heaven from a SKS?

I have been curious though. I have since shot that same bullet out of my 300 Black out ahead of 16.5 gr of RL-7 and that has performed excellent.
I may want to try that out of my SKS.

Ohhh Update!!!
I grabbed my Lymans cast bullet hand book.
It show the LEE C312-155-2R and RL-7 15.5gr to 22gr in the 7.62x39.
Gona try that one.

Hey I have some C312-155-2R's I may trade for those 77 gr 32's???
