Got my new conical mold
« on: October 02, 2012, 06:02:57 PM »
343 grains of pure beauty! 50cal in .501" diameter.  Originally made as a Paper patched bullet, but I ordered it as a slip fit size and lube with Alox.



80gr Pyrodex P, moist sand at 50 yards, ALMOST complete penetration through a 10 gallon bucket of sand.


I will be testing tomorrow with some pyrodex RS and see how that does with and without wad.

Pure lead, or is it a mix. Real nice looking bullet and mushroom.  :tup:
If we were supposed to be vegetarian God would have made broccoli more fun to shoot!
"HOYT" why would you even consider shooting something else?
