[QUOTE="memtb, post: 2455623, member: 75451"] Proper sizing (slug your bore for exact size), good bullet lubes, alloy hardness, and gas checks all contribute to good accuracy and minimal leading when pushing cast bullets pretty hard. Powder coating cast bullets has added a whole new dimension to cast bullet shooting. Minimizing fouling (lead and bullet lube), they can be pushed to pretty high velocities, often increase accuracy and is not difficult to do. I’ve only been powder coating about 3 years, it’s a little tedious, but well worth the effort! With all the bases covered, 2200 + fps mv is quite doable with cast bullets! Though, I keep mine below 2000 fps. memtb [/QUOTE]
