Hi all,
Newbie to the site. I have an old IDEAL bullet mold in .224 It cast a 50 grain bullet similar in shape to a Nossler V-Max but uses a gas check.
I am using clip on wheel weights as an alloy source. If need be , I can heat treat to a BHN of about 30.
I have a NEF VARMIT bull barrel in .223 that I would like to use this bullet in.
Any suggested loads would be helpful. I may shoot this bullet without a gas check to get a "Boat Tail" effect.
Whats your opinion, and suggestion?
Thanks.
