it might have something to do with the hardness of the lead used, too soft of lead will and does foul a barrel, harder lead won't do this..a bunch of us were talking about this the other day at the LGS, and also how hard it is to get quality wad cutters, what quality lead bullets we use can make all the difference in the world...
