    I shoot cast in my AR 25-223, no problems.

    I presume the same due dilligence will work in the AR10

    Yes........... since it is a semi-auto, we shoot them at HV and they do quite well.

    any starting data with cast boolits anyone want to speak of?

    Currently in my AR10, my 311284's feed well from the magazine, so I may want to try to shoot a few of them first, 225gr. I'm starting to search around for a powder and charge to try.

    I have at least 6 other style boolits to try, what is your best one?

    Was thinking about H4895 around 29gr. Any comments?
