200 yd. cast bullet load for black diamond
« on: November 19, 2003, 05:30:53 AM »
I would like some info on a 200 yd. load with a cast bullet w/o a sabot in a 50 cal. t/c black diamond. I'm currently using a 180gr. ser. jhc, with sabot and 90grs. of t-7. Would it be possible to buy these bullets and test them until I find one that I like and then buy a mould and cast them? I can consistinly hit a 8"x8" plate with the 180gr. sabot load, but I would like to try cast bullets.
Thanks Joe

It all depends what you mean by a 200 yard load, ballistically, if you mean "Maximum Point Blank Range," you have little chance.

What i mean is a cast bullet w/o sabot with a good BC for a muzzle loader that can reach out to 200yds.
