A though just STRUCK perhaps its time to get some "slicks" and really cure the leading situation

Well slicks are nice, but you can still find yourself mining lead from time to time....

I shot Express till the it dried up then went to 1.5 Swiss , which is what I started with, still using it but bought 10 lbs. of KIK 1.5 to try and it is showing great promise. I talked to OLD JIM the other day and He switched from GOEX to Swiss , so I guess every one likes to experiment,lots of fun! Bill

Gentlemen:
The NASA lube arrived---------i constructed my normal load with NASA, 10 rounds and 10 rounds with Emmerts
NASA wins hands down for helping with the leading situation i did mine out some "specs" of lead with turpentine and a hammer tight patch-------------accuracy was 1 1/4 minutes at 200 yards
The Emmerts loads got the normal leading -----kinda looks like "tinsel" strips on a tight turpentine patch----accuracy was agin rith at 1 1/4 minutes for the 10 rounds
Sooooooooooo its NASA lube for the Money bullet--------- testing of the Creedmore slugs happens in a week or so
Then its back to KIK tests
Thanks to everyone for the input
Dave
