You fellows are certainly saving me a lot of footwork. I have the RCBS mold and wanted to find an alloy that would work well on our whitetails at somewhere between 1500 and 2000 fps. It'll be used in 308, 30.06, and 30-30 (if I can find an Encore bbl}. Thanks again for all of the input! My apologies to Ole 270 for at least partially hijacking this thread. It was so nice hearing from folks who have walked the walk instead of just prone to spouting opinions.
