    So this would be using the keith hollowpoint mould and avoiding the mag tube. Single loading only. Gonna jump on an app and see what gains I would get on applied ballistics using those bc results...

    Makka I reckon your method is the safest. Although I can prove that it is worth altering cast bullets, the inserts you've made will be much safer than relying on a glue bond to PC. Main problem I had...

    Being such a wet and crappy year it's taken me a while to get out and test. OK, so mixed results. I did get a flyer that I believe was caused by a tip coming off. Wasn't happy about that.

    But the...
