    Best accuracy with cast is around the 1800-1900fps with the Alloy I use, If I source some antinomy and am super careful 3000fps
    is possible it has been done in the US, But they are no good for hunting just like FMJ's straight through or shatter,
    I prefer to make bullets for hunting much easier,
    Powder choice is easy 2206H and 2208 start at 27.00 and work up just go for the best accuracy the HP's will expand at 900fps
    the solids 1300fps,
