Re: oversize 30 bullet design
[




Instead of the 310 to 304 we would be looking at a 308 to 304 taper right? Just wondering ? I will leave the details to the ones here in the know. I just know that the over size 30 would work well in my Marlin levers and any mil- surp that I have or may come my way.Hmmm wonder if a guy could stuff this long bullet in a 7.62x39 and run it in a SKS? Have run 175 gr cast thru a SKS. Slam fired full auto cast bullet shooter not good and makes if hard to fine all your brass.

Time to post a final design and start collecting checks???

They don't start coming out of the bushes to sign up until you go shake them limbs a little. Somebody is going to have to tout this thing on the lever gun boards as about half your takers are likely to be as yet unsatisfied microgroove guys.

The rest of the group will come from the Rooski/Argie/Smelly sorts on the cruffer boards and the cast bullet boards.

Just started school back up this week. I'll get the drawing updated to .304 to .308" and post an order form. I'll collect checks and post the zips. If we get 25 orders, then it's a go, if not then we'll go from there.

I wish Lee would hurry up on the 30TL and the 45PP. Did the 25 ever get enough to order?

Oldfeller,
I shoot Ruskies and Argies instead of Microgroove's, but the wife hasn't mentioned anything about the smellies. Maybe I should ask her?
