    Yeah, im currently using Dyer projectiles in my NRA set up, The M14 needs feeding, hence where these are heading, after that i will keep the hunting load for hunting and i may tinker with some cast loads, but i will throw some together with 45gr 2208 and see what happens, the worst thing possibly that could happen with the ADI's is i get to spend a day at the range having fun!

    I've found 45gr a bit hot in my rifle, depends alot on case and headspace. Maybe ok with the lighter projectile, feed anything from 150 to 168gr on 44.3 ADI2208, good case life no flat primers no obvious case stretch. Always found the need to ream the primer seats for full depth on most cases.............just my experience loading for m14/305

    Good advice for loading for a semi auto.
