Having a cast bullet sized .001 to.002 over the bore size is the main way to accuracy . Load's in the 1800 to 2,000 fps normally shoot the best also . My goal is to have 1 1/2 inch groups or less at 100 for cast loads .
That's what I always heard till I started researching it. The competition cast boys all say make it as big as your chamber throat and case neck will allow. .308 cal. cast competition shooters seem to like 0.311 to 0.314. Supposedly, according to them, you should almost not be sizing your brass at all with cast, or basically expanding the neck to the fired diameter after sizing. I haven't run the experiments, so I don't know for sure.
Lee says , if it chambers , don't size it . For my 300 bo , .309 is as big as it'll fit . It shoots great at .001 over . My 44 bullets I don't size at .432 from the mold . They chamber as cast so they aren't sized and shoot great .
I have never heard good things about harbor freight's white powder coat. Have you tried mixing it with decent powder yet? Do you want to try their old red coating?
@@harmungus haven't tried the red , apparently it's the only good stuff they have but from my understanding HF powder coat is really made for a spray gun . As far as mixing it....meh I just dot. See much of a point . Especially when the quality stuff goes such a long way like pouring low quality gin into legit moonshine just kinda ruins it lol
Eastwood Powder Coat FTW!!😋
Sweet gat bro!!😋👍

@@jamespollard1670 that's about what I'm seeing though honestly seems .002 does better across the board
@TheBlackTrapper I think so too

I think we all started with Harbor Freight red! It was easy to just walk in the store and buy a bottle. 🙂
@WilliamCChapin funny enough I've never seen HF red at my store lol ! Only white or black !
@@TheBlackTrapper I have a pound or two stashed away from before they stopped stocking it 😆
