Is there any credence to the notion that cast lead bullets would be considerably more accurate out of a standard 1911? I had not fired any cast bullets until today. I was getting about 2.5" groups at 10 yards using a mix of factory federal, Winchester and my own reloads. I picked up a bag of LRN rounds at a gun show a month or more ago(traded for some 233 brass i had no use for) and these things tore one ragged hole in the target about 1" in diameter. This was at the end of the day, after firing over 200 rounds. Apart from being rather smoky, that was the best shooting of the day.
Just wondering if I need to start casting, or at least start purchasing some lead bullets now. Anyone else notice better accuracy with lead vs plated or jacketed?
