    The mould is in transit at present left San Francisco 31/12/2017 should be in the hands of customs,
    Hopefully they will expand the same as the 151 .30 cal I make the lead as soft as I can and still
    be able to cast wit it, stug said he is happy to do load development with them I will ship him some
    as soon as I have cast them, I am to busy to do testing now I have 2 other moulds on the way and a pile
    of orders very unusual for this time of year,

    OK We can do a bit with my mates Tikka also. Keen to try some HP .30s but the need to be approximately 180 grain to cycle the AR.

    You will have trouble getting cast HP's to feed in an AR the feed ramp needs to be altered or the flat profile of the nose jambs into the ramp
    not many people want to mess with AR feed ramps, There is a mould maker trying to design a 235 grain HP for the AR platform been at it
    for a few years has not been successful yet I have my name down for one if they are ever made not holding my breath,
    the Nosler 220 grain subsonic is your best option.
