tested some RED DOT / CAST loads today - 08/02/12
44 Mag Ruger SBH, 6.4grn Alliant Red Dot, WLP, TL-430-240 mold, straight WW air cooled, Alox tumble lubed.
Nice moderate load, no visual signs of pressure, lots easier to shoot that the normal H110 loads. Iron sights, grouped about 3 inches at 25 yards. Not great but that was without a decent rest. Certainly a hell of a lot cheaper to shoot than store bought stuff. Still a surprisingly potent round.
Next trial is same bullet with UNIQUE.
