skeet,
Did you cast those bullets yourself? What formula did you use and did you Quench the bullets?
I have a Marlin 444S .444 that shoots my Lyman #429421, 250 grain plain base SWC cast bullet better than 240 or 265 grain jacketed bullets. All I do is move the scope up 10 clicks from the jacketed setting, and then lay in great groups all day long. My bullets are cast out of OLD wheelweights, add a dash of Tin and drop the bullets out of the double cavity mould into a bucket of water. I lube with Aalox and size the bullets .431."
Your bullet metal may be the problem, your bullet hardness may need fixing and the sized diameter may not suit your rifle. It sounds like a fun project for a Summer day, or two at the backyard bench.
