You BP chaps are hardcore but err umm yeah nah I PP 308win with smokeless too...

My C312-185-1R mold knocks them out with a .301 nose (you would think if they were meant to work in a 303B they would have .303-.304 nose). Stick em in the lathe and cut the bands down to match .301.

Got excellent groups with Trailboss. Had high hopes that the leadhead lead would work like a Vmax so I could take the 308 out bunny busting but was disappointed to find a starting load of W748 will blow them straight through 2-3mm of steel.
Have a special little project in mind of tweaking the mold to hollow point and making homemade ballistic tips.
