The video doesn't tell us much.
So you cast a bullet, used Shotgun powder and it's an inexpensive round, and,,(?)
found elsewhere

Looks like a nice cheap plunking round , have you run it over a chrono yet to see just what type speeds your getting ? And have you seen any leading issues with this load ?

I've done the same thing with Unique.  Great SHTF load for boltguns and single shots..

ive loaded the same load in 30-06 with good results.  i think lee makes a 125 gr mold for 270 that would do well with this load.
