And a plinker (sub) round with 7gn trailboss and a 150 RN

I would like to try casting at some stage, looks like fun.

@Nathanfish what speeds were you getting for each load ? I have an identical stainless 336 with 16.5" barrel on the way and was just gonna use leverrevolution ammo but your results look promising I guess I might go down that rabbit hole and add 30-30 to the list of calibers I load

Sorry mate. When I shot these, I had to use the indoor range which is pretty shit for light so my chrono didn't read . Mine did not shoot well with factory levereverlution where the cheap ppu stuff was good

No one seems to stock PPU currently

I've found the ppu brass to be good as well. The hornady brass is crap. Very tight primer pocket and ver thin walls , Had to bin a few cases with disturbing splits down the lengths of the case after firing the factory load.
