FX DRS Pro .22 Cast Bullets?

[harrympope]

I can't get a day without horrible wind, but that's Eastern Washington this time of year. I cast some better quality bullets(oh sorry" slugs") and at 60 yards it improved a bit.Reg set at 150 Bar and I've yet to chronograph them or play with the hammer spring .

I shot 10 out of the Eagle Claw and I was surprised it shot them at all..

I have been getting results casting a 39 grain spire point at .225 diameter soft pure lead and then powder coating.. And not sizing them shooting in a factory Airforce Condor Lother Wather 1 17.7 twist barrel.. I cut the choke off the end and hand lead lapped barrel. It is .221 in diameter.. I can get 1050 fps in 17 inch barrel with a custom doug noble valve...If you want any send me a pm..

i have a 35g bullet sized .222 in my Seneca and it did better uncoated. I tried a couple of the PC 35's in the DRS and they didn't get 1/2" into the barrel as the diameter and PC seemed to turn them into a bore obstruction !
Same happens with .362 PC bullets in my Recluse after 6 shots when the power drops slightly. But in the Dragon Claw. 50 is shoots .503 PC bullets great even on low power.

did you throat the breech end of the barrel to help the larger bullet fit?
I throat 30 caliber powder burners for cast bullets with 1.5 deg throating reamer and notice an improvement most often.
