Newb question despite my having reloaded off and on for years. But I have never dealt with gas checks of any sort. I want to start using them but I also have hundreds of Missouri Bullet Large Buffalo and Oregon Trail Laser Cast 405 grain bullets.
Is it possible to install gas checks on the above bullets or if not what suggested mold do I need to cast a 405 grain bullet for installing gas checks.
I am shooting .45-70 in four Marlin 1895 rifles. I have not had severe leading issues but still, leading happens to some degree despite mild loads no more than 1300 fps. Plus, I would like to step some of my loads up a notch.
