looking at buying some Privi Partisan bullets (.311 150grn FMJBT) for reloading my mosin (Izzy), for strictly plinking. This will be my first purchase of reloading components.
I don't care about accuracy (yet), but I'm concerned about not finding reloading recipes for these bullets, since most seem to be bullet specific. Do I look for an identical grain in a similar bullet shape (Spitzer?), or is it more involved?
These bullets are about 13 cents vs 20 cents each, so it will mean a great deal of money for me if I can use the Prvi bullets. Any thoughts?
Also, does the primer have to match the recipe, or can I buy cheap primers as well (looking for cheap here, not accurate...but definitely not looking for a face full of hot gas or shrapnel)
(will be using lee reloader...mallet fun).
