I really don't have a favorite boolit to cast. I cast for Rifle and pistol and love casting for both. I shoot almost as many cast Rifle as I do Pistol. I haven't shot any Jacketed in a long time. My favorite Rifle caliber is 38-55. My favorite Pistol caliber is 44 Mag. I shoot a lot of 30-30, and 45-70 along with a lot of 45 Colt single action, 357 Mag and a single shot Contender in 223 14"
