Felt Wads - Stephen Borud - 06-27-2018
I took Dons advice and bought some lubed felt wads for my 50 2 1/2” Shiloh. I loaded up 15 rounds and they shot very well. I could get four shots off accurately before the fouling took the accuracy away.
I also made up some express rounds for the same rifle. I shot them out to 403 yards and they shot fairly good with three out of five shots were hits. Some more shooting needs to be done at that range though. I did shoot to 200 yards and it was a dead ringer at that yardage.

That's a vicious looking bullet Stephen.
