I have not been as happy as I'd like to be re bullets for the 307 Winchester. I'd like to try out some heavier bullets at about 2300fps for moose and bear. This would pretty much put the 307 in the same class as the old 33 Winchester which had a great reputation on moose. Hawk makes 190 grainers but they are hard to find.

So I took some 200 grain Speer Hot-Core spitzers and chucked them in a collet die on my Taig Lathe. 7.5 grains of removal gives a nice flat point and 192.5 grain Flat Nosed bullets. I am getting bullets withing .8 grains of each other and though not overly precise I hope they will shoot well and guess that they will.

I figure the big opening will expand nicely and I put in two cannelures in to lock in the core and too assist with crimping.

How too videos here..I tried to do a photo essay but can't seem to upload today.
