You can increase the weight significantly by adding tungsten powder to your molten lead when you're casting. Just make sure you weigh your tungsten powder precisely. Tungsten is around 70% more dense than lead, so replacing 100 grains (50% by volume here, for ease of calculation) of lead will net you 170 grains of weight by tungsten, for a total of 270 grain weight projectiles, not accounting for your gas check. Running a 150 grain mold, replacing half your lead with tungsten powder, nets you a 200 grain bullet. A 100 grain mold, 50% volume tungsten, gives you a 135 grain bullet. You can do this reliably up to around 75% volume without affecting your terminal performance significantly. The 100 grain mold at 75% tungsten by volume would be roughly a 150 grain projectile. This is particularly effective for making subsonic loads. This 200 grain mold @ 75% tungsten by volume nets you a 300 grain projectile.

@DummyRound

Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the comment. Powder coating totally changes the game in terms of cast bullet capabilities. Hardness matters far less(as far as to reduce leading), because the PC acts like a polymer jacket. Gas checking is optional(again, to reduce leading), though many say it helps increase accuracy by providing a completely uniform base. Some people push lead up to 2500fps in a 223 with harder alloy and gas checked. I would love to test these for expansion, but afraid my range would frown upon that. I am unsure of the hardness of these bullets, they were sent in to the channel by @CW . My standard range scrap mixture that I dig out of the berm is roughly 12 bhn. I push these around 1850fps in 300blk, 1700ish in 450bm, 1250 in 357mag, 1k in 9mm, etc. It's accurate enough for training and having a good time at the range, and can save a TON of money compared to factory bullets of similar weight.

Second comment. I also noticed a little denting on your primer. I've had this happen also. Dirt, or sizing lube ( yeah I know, sizing lube?) but it can happen, and even fowling from primer pockets have caused it. One very big one is a shorter primer pocket. I myself no matter if it's once fired factory or factory new,( even nickel ) I always uniform them. Next adjust my primer system to .004 in depth to the lot or tray of primers being used at the time of loading or reloading. This has reduced dents to 0 with exception of a small grain of powder making itself to the top of the ram pin flat. Does a dented primer matter. Only on the severest. But I'm not expert so.

I feel like it would be cheaper that way instead of buying a 3 die set and then a separate crimp die. Thanks, Ethan

@DummyRound

2 жыл бұрын

My 350 is also a 16 inch BCA upper. You will absolutely need a sizing die. I would stay away from the Lee dies, at least for this cartridge. The set I have does not size the base of the case, so they won't pass a gauge. The expander is sort of a mandrel but doesn't work until you go too far and make a trumpet out of the case mouth. The seating die is awkward. I don't like to seat and crimp in the same stage, so you'll have to back the die body out a little bit. Doing that leaves you with very little seating stem to actually contact the bullet and seat to your proper depth. Then, when you do go to crimp with the seating die(after backing the stem out) it gives it an aggressive roll style crimp, which isn't great for a case that headspaces off the mouth. I have since gotten the Lyman MSR die set. It is amazing. I've heard good things about the RCBS set, and you can't go wrong with Redding. Anything but the Lee kit!

@DummyRound

I have mostly cast options, the plated ones will probably fall apart in flight. I'd guess they'd be going closer to 2k than 1200fps. I do have a 124gr FMJ we could play with, they should(might?) hold up better than a plated projectile. I'm using an AR by the way, so I require it to function the action. If you're running a bolt gun, and/or want a supposed load, there are tons of other options to use faster pistol powders, or Trail Boss, that you could find an accuracy load for - but it might not necessarily cycle an AR. I've seen some big 250+gr projectiles for suppressed ARs, but they needed a custom chamber and faster twist rate than a normal 350legend. I'm leaning towards the 158gr cast for now, but you could swap in an XTP or other equivalent jacketed projectiles if you size them down to .356". The 200gr is also fun, and I have some basic data started on those... Too many options!

I’m curious about how much leading you will get even though they are costed, n caped. According to my gunsmith shooting lead GCBbullets will still lead a barrel, lead isn’t meant to shoot at that speed in a AR. Just my opinion.

No leading yet. Powder coating is a whole different beast compared to plain lead with traditional lubing methods. The GC in this instance is more so to have a uniform base and help accuracy as much as possible, not so much to help gasses from passing around the projectile.

In regards to your follower that looks tilted. I think your magazine is going bad. I've had the same thing happen with 5.56 mags. Normally what is going on is the top of the mag isn't formed right during manufacturing or the seem welds are letting go at the follower channel. Easy check is to measure your gap at the feed lips with your caliper and the rear of the magazine too. Those followers are usually injection molded and are really consistent so try some different high quality magazines.

Who knows what they were thinking with this design, it would have been so much better if 357 orientated, and heavier bullets in mind. I have seen a few videos here on YT with subsonic 350 Legend, they had 280gr projectiles (I think?). I've theorized making duplex loads weighing 260-300gr with different projectiles paired with a wadcutter. Using an AR, 200gr is maybe too light to go subsonic. Mine are going 1800-2k, so I think heavier is required, and like you said, it's basically a 10mm at 200gr. I'll be playing with it for a while. Thanks for watching 👍👊🇺🇸

@@DummyRound LOL,,, using CH's is a very RADICAL way to measure, 'stuff'.! I'm way more technical,,,, I rely on Bch's, down to a minute Rch,,, with just a tad of SBch's 'strawberry blonde' mixed in! ;>) BTW,,,, I ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOUR VIDS! Very informative, AND down to the point! THANKS. I'm in the process of learning to reload,,,, & I'm blown away at the thought of using casted lead bullets @ over 2,000fps! PLEASE add a ballistic jell test to your reloaded grouping tests!? I'd love to see the expansion of lead wheel weights per FPS. What hardness are we looking at?
