    I finally got around to doing some casting with my new mold. I’ll call them my heavy’s. Got a pretty good recipe for 300BLK 240gr subs.

    I believe these will look nice with a Zombie Green powder coat.

    Those look great what mold is that?
    I have some 311365 at are right about 200 I used in Garand with 34 4895 and 35 Varget.
    And was also going to use them in 300BLK so if you have any load info on them plase share it.
    Was told use Jacketed data starting loads for the same weight bullets

    The jacketed weight works really good using the Lyman manual if you’re running subs in a 300BLK. Just a bit over the minimum load worked really good. No keyholes and really quiet using a can.

    Zombie time!

    Super nice! I need to get a 300 BO. I found some "neon green" from the Powder Coat store. Is 400f semi-gloss, been running it on 9mm and 223 and have had zero issues with it. I only use one coat so its not perfectly coated but I like it! Pic doesnt really do them justice, the green is on point, its very neon IRL.
