lee 309-113-f bullet aka soupcan and Unique

[saskgunowner101]

Just wondering if anyone has any loading data for this bullet using Unique in a 30/30. From what I've come across so far, others have used 7-11 grains Unique with a 170 so I'm sure the same with this 113 grain would be fine.

It's obviously for plinking but I'm curious how fast I can make it go before severe leading. Any thoughts appreciated.

I'd go 6-9 grains of Unique without gas check, and up to 12 with. I wouldn't go past 10 grs with a 170gr cast bullet.

I agree with Andy.

They seem to work okay so far....put five rounds through for more a function check than anything and no problems. They sure are stubby though! Anything more than the top driving band sticking out of the case would get stuck in the seating die. Can't wait to give them a try for groups.
