I’ve been wanting a 22 cal mold forever and have never broken down and bought one. So tonight I did. It’s a Lee and I ordered a .225 lee sizer kit also. I ordered from a site I’ve never heard of, https://fsreloading.com/lee-molds/l...bee-221-fireball-222-remington-223-remington/. They were the only place I could find a Lee mold and seems like a legitimate site so I took the chance. Anyone here ever order from these guys?
With the current primer situation, I’ve been paying close attention to the practice I’ve been doing, ie., very little with center fire rifle. Everything that is except for the 450 bushmaster which uses small primers. I’ve been shooting that quite a lot with light charges of bullseye and small pistol primers (which I have a good supply of) and having a ball with it! So, I have a .222 and 2 .223’s and will shoot them with similar bullseye and pistol primer loads.
My lead supply will also hold up better with 55 gr bullets vs the 260gr bullets in the 450 bm.
This is a gas check bullet. Hopefully I’ll be able to shoot light loads without a gc since I don’t have any… I’ve had good luck with 130gr gas check base bullets minus the gc in our 308’s. All bullets are and will be powder coated of course.
I’ll keep you posted on my results.
