A few pages back I mentioned the fact that a respected friend of mine was suggesting that I use hollowpoint rounds in my 336C for deer on a hunting trip this coming fall. He is now reccomending Hornady Leverlution instead. When they first came out I sampled a few of these in the 165g variety and they shot a little high at 25 yards, but grouped well in my rifle.
Any comments or suggestions about loading up duplicate loads for practice would be appreciated.
I have ordered a box (500) hardcast 150g LFP to start messing around with recipes. I plan to keep velocities around 1600 fps or less to keep leading down. Even if these 150g lead rounds can't be made to replicate Leverlutions, they will still be fun to practice with, especially since they were only $24 plus shipping.
