Hi Tommy,
I played with them looking for an accurate load for the 25-2.
I loaded 155 grain .452 bullets backwards. I was thinking the little nub on the 155's might have some magic boat tail effect.
I loaded up to 4.5 of 231. The first five went into a tiny group. I found when shooting ten shot groups that seven or so would hover around the 1" mark at twenty five yards but anywhere from two to four out of the ten would often open groups to around 4".
I don't see anything a person can do that he couldn't do better with a conventional round. It is fun looking sometimes though.
Good luck.
Mike
