Anyone got one?
Have you got any loads and does anybody know if there is a mould for casting an 80gr (or thereabouts) boolit?
Bet I get no takers with this one!

Haven't got one, but I'd certainly make room for one!

Re: 7x33 Sako
I have been really keen on the idea of having a rifle put together in this calibre, but decided to reign in my spending on rifles for a little while.
If you do get one of these made up, please let us know how you get on, what twist rate you go for etc.

Around 9.5 grains of N105 or a tad more Blue Dot for an 80 grain bullet. tongueout

Re: 7x33 Sako
Dromia made a good suggestion today. He suggested getting a heavier boolit mould and remove some metal from it - probably a Loverin design.
In the absence of a suitable mould this seems the best way to go.

Re: 7x33 Sako
The Sako rifle, Redding die set in 7 x 33 and 300 rounds of ammo became mine today.
Now I need a source of bullets or boolits (preferably the latter)
The load data I found suggested Viht 120 powder and 70 gr pill
