NOE 30 Hunter and the 315

[waco]

Loaded up 25 or so of two different NOE bullets, The 30 Hunter PB and the copy of the Saco 315gc
Both were PC and the 315 also got the bottom two lube grooves filled with 2500+
10,5gr Redot for the 30 Hunter and 46gr IMR4831 with the 315
These will be shot out of my Rem. 788 .308
Hope to get some video of that when we get back out.

Got you wound up, did I?

Good, I need someone to swap notes with on this HVPC stuff.

Nice looking bullets, Waco!
I’m also shooting the NOE #315 gc clone today for the first time, very exited about this bullet. Not powdercoated, though. (PC is on the quite long list of future experiments.....). The NOE hunter also seems like a very interesting design.
Happy shooting!

Got you wound up, did I?

Yeah. I've been wanting to try some other bullets besides the xcb and also with pc.
The 315 looked like a good choice. These should be around 22-2300fps?
Also the will be shot from my 788 not 700.

If I poll the "preconceived notions" database in my head, the results will not favor the Eagan/Ardito MX2-3-4 designs being suitable for top speed. I bought the .22 mould to fit a really long, large NATO throat due to lack of other mould options, and the results from actual shooting have opened my mind quite a bit. I am very interested to see if the concept of powder coating an MX bullet for higher velocith scales up to .30 caliber.
