Bought a pound of PP to tryout in my CZ Scorpoin carbine. Ran it with Lyman's 120 TC and Accurate's 35-147BG mould.

Lyman's 120 grain bullet in CCI brass and CCI 500 primers with following charges, ten shots and resulting MOA:
5.2 grains gave 6 MOA at 100 yards.
5.4 grains gave 5 MOA at 100 yards.
5.6 grains gave 4 MOA at 100 yards.
Accurate's 147 grain bullet in FC brass and CCI 500 primers with the following charges, ten shots and resulting MOA:
4.2 grains gave 5 MOA at 100 yards.
4.4 grains gave 5 MOA at 100 yards.
4.6 grains gave 7 MOA at 100 yards.
Not what I would call stellar accuracy, by a long shot.
I still need to test it with NOE's 115 RF bullet but I need to cast some up and then heat treat them because the ones I have on hand are PB and air cooled.
Haven't tried it with any of my pistols but it should do OK at handgun ranges............at least as well as I can hold.
