Aea carbine shooting NOE 249-39-RF-E6?

[MrP]

I recently got my AEA .25 carbine working smoothly, and am wondering if this mold (249-39-RF-E6) produces slugs that work well with this gun. Don’t know if .249 is a problem vs. .250

I currently only have molds in .25 that are 48 grains or more since I have mainly been casting for airforce guns

The weight will slow you down some. I currently shoot NSA's 26..8 gr. .249. I get a quarter size group for 10 shots at 50 yds. They average 883fps for 30 shots SD 12. Heaviest I have tried are 33.6 gr. Accuracy was ok but velocity was down to 797 fps over 25 shots.

My Backpacker 25 shoots dish base better than flat. Most accurate projectile I have shot is the PolyMags. I have not shot .250 or larger yet but plan to. I have a pellet mold I haven't used yet that is around 27 gr. .250. I'll have to try it.
