Well lovely then. Which 13 gramme bullet are you going to choose?

I'm not sure yet.
Woodleigh makes a 200gn .318 round nose that would be appropriate, but they are extremely expensive.
The 200gn Lapua D166 (.311) that I load for my M39 could probably be paper-patched to .318, but I hate to do that for a number of reasons. And it's a FMJ anyway.
There's a guy on another forum that's offered some powder-coated cast bullets that mic about .318, but I'm not sure I want to rely on that always being available (I don't cast, myself).
It would only take a couple of boxes of the Woodleigh bullets to pay for a swage die to size various of the .323 options down to .318. Probably the Speer 200gn flat base SP. This is probably the most cost effective option over the life of me and the gun.
We'll see, though. I still haven't figured out where I laid my caliper! Heh.
