Just got back from the range lads with the 94 Big Bore. I loaded some of Woody's 275gr cast with 29gr of RL-7 with good results, just under 2" and MV of 1847-1862. They are a gas checked bullet, so I suppose that velocity is ok pressure-wise? This rifle really likes the 200gr Sierras, with groups ay under 1" (50 yards). I think I'm going to try the 275 cast on hogs at shorter ranges and rely on my scoped Marlin 375 with the 255 gr Barnes and 200 grain Sierras. What do you guys think?
You got it now Jorge, and not a Big Bore rifle and not to muddy the thread, but sending a M-94 30-30 AE to JES, his rebores are 15 twist and .377 inch, meaning I can shoot a .378/.379 inch cast lead bullet, be fun to have a spare thicket buster on the place.
