Here from Lee, the tooling for my TLC313-150-RF is being cut so in a few weeks I will be able to cast my own!

Can't believe you got one of these too. I've really enjoyed mine so far. Easily more accurate than my old Mini-14 I got rid of. We've not put a scope on the thing, and were easily tapping the 4 inch steel plate over and over at 100 yards. I carries easily as well. You might get spoiled on this thing and start using the cheap Russian ammo! Mine likes the Silver Bear, though it will shoot anything at this point. Some failure to chamber with that polymer coated stuff. 100% with the Silver Bear. I think my son and I shot 500 rounds this last weekend.

The Mini-30 is an outstanding rifle! The Tulammo 154-grain SP makes it quite a thumper. I sure would hate to be on the receiving end of this beast!

That ammo did expand nicely for me though the jacket always separates from the core. What more could you want for shooting hogs? it shot 30-30 bullets very well, and does equally well with the bullets I sent you. Now I am impatiently awaiting another mould +guns :mrgreen:

We really like the peeps on this!
