Hello all,
Has anybody tried to cut these down to 120gn? After chucking them in a unimat, I can't seem to tighten up the chuck tight enough to hold the bullet so as to keep it from chattering/moving without damaging the bullet. Other than the jaw marks, they turn out nice and at 120gn, there's still ~.100" of boattail left.
If no luck on the modification, How fast should I expect to be able to push the unmodified bullet out of a 20" barrel......I could probably live with 2300FPS from the muzzle, assuming the bullet will expand down to the advertised 1600FPS.
Any advise you all could give would be appreaciated!
