    So with a bit of a break in the weather I set up and had a casting session, some for my 3030, .308, (No I bought that mould), and the big stuff for the Sharps. The mould was good to cast with and even though I had two different bullet weights, 423grs, 405grs, I was quite pleased with the result. I then pp a few so I could load them up for a range shoot, with paper on the bullets were 461" Dia, resized to 459" in a sizing die I made and loaded up 10 rounds. At the range I had to reset the sights, as last time I found the fore sight was lose, shooting at 100m first shot low, then 4 left, set the sights and a six o'clock hold not to bad for a home made barrel and home made pp bullets, .Homebrew.357.
