430, I have no experience in loading cast bullits. Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
If you don't cast, just use quality boolits like Double Tap, Cast Precision, Beartooth, etc. Stay away from the bulk junk.
Just work loads like you do for jacketed, there are all kinds of listed loads for cast and in general they can use a little more powder then jacketed but you will see that when searching load info.
The 335 gr LBT shoots good with 26 gr of 296. The group I showed was with my 325 gr PB boolit and 26 gr of 296.
You can make cast shoot better then jacketed and it is cheaper.
Lead is also easier on the gun.
A few examples for you. This was my old .44 that I showed the forcing cone. Plain RD 265 gr boolit at 50 and I shot the can at 100. I hit the rail so I aimed higher for the last shot.
Same gun at 200 yards with my 330 gr boolit.
Then my Vaquero at 50 yards.
Cast is GOOD!
