[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 931594, member: 2736"] I absolutely agree with you that It can be done. My question is , Is it worth the trouble and the loss in velocity. Also I have had and seen problems with gas checks and will not use them at all, especially in a semi auto where failures can be catastrophic . I admit that I am very carful about not taking short cuts or trying to save a little money but sometimes the savings are just not worth it IMO. In this game, velocity and BCs are king so using hard cast bullets are just not worth it as long as we can still get good jacketed bullets. I shoot hard cast bullets in my cartridge black powder rifles (Because no one makes 600+ grain bullets for them and load them to 1700 ft/sec+ but I do have to remove the lead fouling after accuracy starts dropping off. To each his own, Not trying to start an argument, Just my opinion. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
