My Ruger # 1, 30-30 shoots this cast bullet real well.
I’ve had a Lyman 311008 single cav. for a couple of months. The single cav. mould cast a fine bullet, but trying to keep ammo loaded for my grandson with a single cav. is tough. I’ve been trying to find a 2 cavity ( or 4 or 5 cav. ) clone of the 311008 with no luck of late.
My luck changed over the weekend…………..
Al Nelson at NOE was very nice to accommodate me with a mould, a new 2 cav. aluminum ” clone ” of the 311008. The mould arrived in the morning’s mail.
Of course, there was nothing to do but prep the mould, plug up the pot and cast a few hundred. Neither cavity shows any tendency of the bullets to stick. They literally jump from the mould.
The cast bullets drop from the mould at .3125 ” with ACWW’s , nice and round.
Lubed, sized .310 “ , and ready to load they tip the scales at 124.5 grs.
My grandson will really enjoy these in the Ruger # 1, 30-30 .
My grandson will have some fun with these , here is one
of his targets he shot with the 311008 in the Ruger # 1, 30-30 :
Cheap , clean shooting with no gas check to buy.
