Attention New Members and those new registering! We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username.

Got an E-mail from a fellow member of my gun club.
He found some of these while cleaning his house.

Some pictures of a dummy round I made to check the OAL

These are 180gn cal .312 copper plated H&N bullets.
He had no use for them anymore so he gave me a box of 500.

I'm going to reload some for my M91/30 PU sniper and see how they perform.
Got some range time coming up next Sunday.

Some data:

Brass: Lapua
Primer: Federal 210 LR
Powder: 18 gn VihtaVuori N110 (reduced load)
Bullet: 180gn cal .312 copper plated H&N bullet
OAL: 72.15mm / 2.85"

Met vriendelijke groet,

Martin

Sounds like you got a very good deal. I see a lot of plated bullets but so far have stuck to jacketed bullets.

Thanks Rad.

I have no experience with these bullets but I do hear only good things about them.
I'll start reloading for my Mosin Nagant PU sniper this week and see how they perform on the range.
I'll keep you posted.

Met vriendelijke groet,

Martin
