8mm Day

[tahoe2]

Taking out the duv-41 and the M24/47 tomorrow for some cast bullet testing, I have some 180 grn RFN w/gas check loaded up, sized .324" ,
first time with either one shooting cast-boolits, should be interesting fun. The 24/47 is the top one in the second pic.

Hey Ray, thanks for the response, using IMR 4227 and IMR 4198, loads are right out of Lyman's Cast Bullet handbook. I have 40 rounds in RP (Remington-Peters) brass and 20 in PPU (Privi) all the primers are CCI 200. I think I read somewhere, that you should use magnum primers in reduced loads, but they are not called for in Lyman's book. Should be a great day weather is hot ! 85+ today.
