My Accura V2 really liked them. They are hard to get though.


Don't buy into that crap about being able to reload and shoot and shoot. I did that, and my accuracy was more like a shot gun pattern. Swab between shots with them unless you are shooting Blackhorn209.
The 2 shots on the right are with a bore cot installed, the other 4 on the left are without the bore cot.

As for loading, watch my video and I show you how they load. Pay attention to my hand when I do the zoom out view of me loading.
