I start with BA's Big banger 45/120 on the right.

L to R
45/70,338WM,404Jeffs and 45/120.

Thought you might like to know about these gems, 225gn 8mm and 170gn 6.5mm designed especially for military mausers (I got them on back order);

Often thought about cast projectiles for my Mausers.

Oh goody when do we get them buddy? I try those 6.5's that's for sure.

BAW - is the 45-120 based on the RCBS Basic brass case , or is it a copy of an existing calibre ? I need a specimen of the cartridge if possible ...?

Both are the same except for 1 in 18" twist for 45/120 and 1 in 14" for RCBS. I'll give you a shell when you are over if you can get it back through customs!

Mate , my international cartridge carrying is always done with permits and approvals , it aint worth trying any other way - beleive me ! I would like a specimen of that cartridge , thanks .

What else from, 404Jeff, 38/55,38/40, 220Swift,22PPC,17AH,17Mach4, 32/40,340W,40/65,270AI,257AI, ah stuff it give me your list and I'll see what I got!

G'day Grossenfarter-to-be, I get the impression you've tried cast bullets in the 270 (AI?). Any good? I'm interested from the 'plinking' point of view in my 270win. Any thoughts?

Ackley Improved=AI
You name it Bad Ass has improved it.

130gn RCBS with 16gn 2400, shot OK (2" at 50yds) however I've always found the small more efficient cases to shoot cast better.
The pistol cals 32/20,38/40,44/40 give much tighter grouping if loaded with care.
My favourite cast calibre is 7X57 with RCBS 145gn. 28.5gn AR2206 goes 1800fps with MOA grouping.

So shouldn't that be BAI ?? I likey the looks of that 45-120

Bad Ass Wallace,

I have both of them on back order too! Just heard yesterday they have my 6.5 ready to ship, but only 9 of the 8mm ordered (out of the 25 needed for Lee to cut them).

We need to find someone to order up the 8mm's, and soon! I want to load some! NOW!!
