Load Data for Hard cast lead bullets

[Roystu]

Can anyone direct me to a place to find data on Hardcast lead?

 

[DBMJR1]

Just use data for regular lead cast bullets.

Are you not finding data for cast bullets at all?

Caliber? Bullet?

Caliber, bullet weight, any powder on hand you wanna use?

The old Lyman Cast manual, the Lyman 48th, or the Lyman 49th.
The Cast, and 48th edition has more than 49th.
Amazon or eBay shoukd have the older ones like Lyman Cast Book or 48th

Might have to work inbetween the 200 and 220… IDK i usually like to keep my hardcast under 1200 ft./s to reduce leading, usually stick with tight group or trail boss for my hard cast , but don’t see no load data for those two powders

Pages from a Lee manual.

Would also recommend https://www.hodgdonreloading.com.

This is from their site.

Best wishes! Like Chillin said, under 1200 (I go for under 1100) keeps the most of the leading away.

check this website

Cast Boolits

This is the dedicated cast bullet forum!

castboolits.gunloads.com

and....to help with the leading problem. I always run a patch of 2 stroke oil down the barrel and have minimal if any leading at all.

Learned that from the castboolits website

That's a tip I've never heard before!

 

[falshooter]

For the bullet caster out there, if you take a q-tip and apply a little between your mold and sprue plate, they won't stick either
