I will try them in both lengths in the morning.

Cool. That is another big, flat meplat.
IC what's the seated length on those? 1.2420" :-[
I'm sending one down with the others for the pull-down.
Works for me! ;D
1.2380" is what I measured.
I'm throwing a new Duracell in the Chrony ;D I must have 50lbs of ammo to run today with all this Hardcast stuff :o
happy shooting to ya
Did you receive the even bigger hardcasts? :o

Looks like they will be here today and I will be doing some shooting of my own :)
Hope to hear how you liked them!
The Doubletap rating is 1300 FPS and these fell well short, even when I used the 6" barrel Hunter.
EAA Limited Pro 4.75" 1187, 1185, 1200. Average = 1190.66 FPS/ 630 LBS
EAA Hunter 6" 1236, 1257, 1242. Average = 1245 FPS/ 688 LBS
100 FPS off :o
That does not suprise me, they didn't feel as stout as the 200gr UW TMJ
It's not bad for DT, but as usual the flap rating needs changed. Any idea when you purchased those?
The shorter length makes sense whit that wide nose to help feeding angles! 8)
I didn't get a single hiccup with any of the Hardcast rounds today. It's been that way since I parted with the Dan Wesson Razorback :o
They were ordered last mth.
Did the box say 1300 FPS @ 4.6" barrel length like the old stuff? If he changed the flap rating to 1200 FPS it fits. He was using a 5" barrel rating on some of the new stuff, but no way even out of a 747 will they hit 1300 FPS in even a 6" ???

Sorry IC for the late reply, I thought I had already
The box reads "1300fps from a 5" barrel and 1240fps from a 3.8" barrel"
Oh. Still way off then ???
1300 fps- 200 gr HC @ 5" barrel . I would be thankful the velocity is incorrect.
That would have to be overpressure at 1300 fps. unless he was using magic pixiee dust 8)

The old Swamp Fox was 200gr@1300 FPS. I have a video of me shooting it.
