Cast bullets in a 585 Nyati
      #182051 - 20/05/11 05:26 PM

No other reason other than curiousity, but has anyone got any cast bullet loads they would like to share for a 585 Nyati?
I'm lead to believe that NEI make a nice 1200 grain mould for one, plain base, as gas checks that big aren't available.

Here's a picture of the NEI bullet.


Regards,
David.

500,
Just a silly thought, but a 1200 grain cast bullet only needs to do 1440 fps to make 5300 ft/lb muzzle energy, the requirements for Group 3 Nitro.

Might be fun.

David.

Fun ? BS.


Nyati's kick like mules - at least the 2 i have fired did.

Bob from Kudu has a target on his wall that I shot with a 585 Nyati.
