I hope everyone is doing well, I haven't been on here in a while. Today I finished my hunters safety course online. Im almost 40 and have never been hunting. I work with guys that do a lot of varmint and predator hunting and they have been inviting me for the last few years but I have never had a hunting license. I've been wanting to go and finally started the steps to become involved.
In California the law requires lead free bullets. So I ordered up 100 of the Lehigh controlled chaos bullets in 55gr. I've never loaded or shot lead free anything. I figured 100 would hopefully get me worked up and leave me with enough to get sighted in and be able to go on a coyote hunt.
I'm just curious if anyone here (I'm sure someone has experience with these bullets) has tried these or uses them on a regular basis. Any advice or tips on loading these would be greatly appreciated. I plan on using ram tac for powder and luckily the Lehigh website has load data for my combination.
Again I'm just looking for feedback and hopefully it is good. I will probably be shooting these from a 24" barrel AR. I would have gone heavier with the bullet weight but mag length was a concern.
