	I just bought a silhouette rifle. Browning BPCR, 30", 40-65. I just don't have it in me at this time to cast my own bullets. Lookin' for recommendations on a vendor. There are a couple in the SSE.

	Very accurate rifle.

I've used Chey & Buffalo arms and thought they were fine. But, casting your own is the only way to go long-term if you want to be competitive.

	smokeless or bp? either way, chey-cast 1:20 with bp lube will work just fine. though i cast all my own now, i've used chey-cast in the past.

	I'd also check out Buffalo Arms. A while back there were some postings on the Shiloh forum from TexasMac who shoots the same rifle. He did a number of tests and posted photos of his 200m groups with a number of bullet designs. That might be of use to you. Chris.
