I may be a bit crazy here... but I am wanting to know if anyone has loaded 110 grn .30 carbine (.308 diam) onto a .308 for light plinking. (i know I have seen load data for it, but I am just curious about personal experience or your thoughts)
I have a saiga and the damn thing chews through ammo quick. Obviously I am not using my precision hand loads for it, but it still comes out to about $0.32 per round
*If* I could use these plated 110 grn for general plinking, I could get my cost down to about $0.24 per round all while reducing recoil at the same time.
Of course, this may be all for not if the FPS required to keep the bullet in one piece and accurate prevents the weapon from cycling properly.
thoughts?
