Back in the spring I cast a bunch of these. Today was size & lube day. I’ve loaded several of these for my H&R 30-30 using 7 grains of Promo. Hope to try these in a few days.

That's a cool looking bullet.

I gotta get out this weekend and cast up a pile for my little H&R 30-30 too!

LAH · October 30, 2014, 08:37 PM

Sized them .310 with Carnuba Lube. Hope they shoot well to 50 yards.

I haven't cast anything yet, so I'll just have to show the cavities.
I actually just got this 30-30 mold today in the mail. I'm itchin' to get it hot this weekend.
Fortunately, it's going to be right around 32-34° at daylight. That'll keep them skeeters away! That's why I only cast in winter.

I would be thrilled with 50 yd performance if I can get it. (That's all the range I got here in the backyard.)

Those look like they would work well out of my Blackhawk in 30 Carbine too....

I'm trying some of these, MP 314-640 as well as some of the Accurate 31-115H and shortly some of the 31-125F as soon as I save up for it....

LAH · October 31, 2014, 08:33 AM

Those Accurate Molds are great stuff.

Beagle333 · October 31, 2014, 09:40 AM

I sure do like the look of those two Accurates you linked to, Mike.

Mike / Tx · October 31, 2014, 08:54 PM

On the way to the woods...

I just bought a 5c aluminum in the 115H from a fellow over on CB's. Your right it IS a cool little pill.

The other I contacted Tom about making the 115 a bit heavier and with a bit more lube groove and he had the addition to the catalog in about 2 days. Now all I gotta do is save up for it....
