Wolfdog91 7,444 Posted October 21, 2021 Report Share Posted October 21, 2021 (edited) Couldn't sleep to my usual so decided to load up some more cast and give it a try with some most shot groups, and gotta say I'm pleasantly surprised! haven't had time to measure them properly but I'm fairly happy with the core grouping Got full functionality out of my AR, velocity stayed right around 2200fps which is a little faster then I'd like but hay what can ya do. Now what I need to figure out is what's with those wide flyers out of 15 shots on the 100yd target 5 flew pretty wide compared to the other 10 so maybe these where flawed bullets some how idk but this is definitely a fun little project Edited October 22, 2021 by Wolfdog91 Quote Link to post

Here's me cleaning it after the initial round where I was going past 2500fps and didn't see anything. Then again I am an amateur at this so my I missed something Quote Link to post
Wolfdog91 7,444 Posted October 22, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2021 Finally got home and was able to measure everything and as far as core grouping where the bulk of the bullets where landing I got 2.080" @50 and 2.631@100yd. and gotta say it's interesting that my POI as far as vertical barely changed but all in all pretty happy had alot of guys saying I'd be lucky to get 4" groups @100yd and here I am with close to half that lol. Will be good cheap plinking ammo if anything if I can't shrink these down some more Quote Link to post
Sausagedog 7,381 Posted October 22, 2021 Report Share Posted October 22, 2021 Well they ain't tumbling so that's good. What about 1/2 a grain less? Quote Link to post
Sausagedog 7,381 Posted October 22, 2021 Report Share Posted October 22, 2021 Looks like lead to me. I think you may need to use better lube or slow them down some. Quote Link to post
