Has anyone here used gas checks and lead bullets for shooting your M1A? Are there any associated problems by doing this?
Thanks!

Go over to the "castboolits" web site. Lengthy discussion in regards to this. They seem to work well with the right powders.
Leading does not seem to be a problem.
I have shot them with the faster powders. Very accurate but do not cycle the action.

Russ, get on the search engine here on TFL. There are plenty of posts on shooting cast bullets in the M1A platform. dozier
