I've seen the plan Jane Round Nose bullets often shoot amazingly well at 100 and they have an excellent track record for that kind of work. Yet the majority don't use them.

Why?



Really good question. My experience mirrors yours, Ive shot RNs and they invariably shoot well. Anyone who casts bullets will tell you the closer to cylindrical that they get, the better they shoot. ( Hence the use of full wadcutters for target shooting.)



Now come on ingwe. I'm thinking these are pretty cylindrical (cigar if you will wink....). But I don't know if I can get the dang things to shoot worth a hoot in any of my 30 cals. I just keep them around for the cool factor grin..:
