It's tomorrow!!!!
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Guns dont kill people. Dads with pretty Daughters do...!

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.
What do you mean by removing metal from it.
Mill some metal off of the top to reduce the boolit length and thus reduce its' weight.

Ah right I see simple enough to do but the boolit might be a bit odd shaped at the base.

Sorry, no photo yet - lots of boolits on the go.
I saw a 30 AAC Blackout round today (one of Phaedra's) - there's absolutely no difference between that and the 7x33 apart for .020" on bullet diameter and a couple of thou on the case head. There's nothing new.
