I have been wondering how cast bullets in the 30 cal range behave when shot slow enough to pass through the mach transition say between 50 and 100 yards?
My only experience is 22LR and it does seem to effect groups. I light loaded my 444 many years ago and 50 yards it grouped well. It sprayed after 75 yards. That rifle was very accurate with hunting loads.
I ask because I would prefer my loads are accurate to 100 yards even though it appears that I'll be shooting mostly at an indoor 50 yard range.
