Hello from Scotland
I have a .308 Mirkou M-bolt stainless/synthetic 22" barrel, which im smitten with its very light, shoot very straight, and is pleasing to the eye.
At recently i have been putting factory 180 gn Winchester silver-tips and 180 gn Nosler balistic tips it shoots both to the same point of impact dispite different powder and loads.
At some point i want to try cast gc bullets of 180 gn in it. This brings me to me question to crimp or not to crimp ? As with all topics many seem to have differing opinions on the subject, some say crimp for better accuracy others not.
I was planning to use collet neck die only full length sizing when the fireformed cases started getting tight ? As i would also like to get maximum life span out of my brass ?
What do you guys think ??
Regards Englander
