Rd what type of powder u running for them slugs for what I have read the faster you can drive them slugs the better twist they get out of the rifles barrel the better they fly. Most of the time they want them up around 1850 fps to get the most accrete shot.

I will be using the Lee data that comes with the mold. HS6 is what I will be using.

Yeah most if them a good eating there is a few big deer around here but the population is so out if control these little one run around all day but the big boys you will never see. I am a meat hunter anyways don't really care about a rack can't eat them horns I do have a few nice bucks on the wall from back home with I will be heading. There the 16th of November for some deer action with the trusty .270 can't wait for that trip one more day to try and get a hog breaking out the trusted duck hunting chest waders tomorrow if they will not come to me I will go to them in this thick old marsh.
