Sorry I have been away for awhile, been hunting.


I got a care package from swamprat the other day, a little bag of his bullets and he asked me to try them. I was very skeptical, but I loaded them over 10.0grs of Unique and hit the bench. 20 rounds fired, no real cooling between shots, just enough time to get the hammer back, sight and squeeze. 20 rounds not a single trace of leading, none, zip, zilch. Groups were very good, especially for my raggedy shooting skills. These are going to be the cast bullets for me I do believe. 245gr SWC should be able to handle the meanest deer in the woods.


The reason I used a loaded round to slug the barrel is because that is what the people at Mount Baldy told me to do.


Fredj338, there is leading the first 1-2" of the barrel and there is leading at the end of the barrel. When I tried the MtBaldy's over 21grs of 2400 I was getting strings of lead 2-3" long rolling out of the barrel, it was just smeared down the bore.
