bullets

[bruce moulds]

joe,
thanks for the reply.
i agree the wad should not be relied on as a gas seal
i was thinking more that the base of the bumped up bullet would be fully protected as compared to a bore diameter wad.
i can't see why a bore dia pp bullet would not shoot well out of a slug gun, but as no one does it, it is probably not the best. if they bump up in a cartridge gun, they should also in a slug gun.

what type of bullets doc pardee used is still of great historical interest. as is his loading and cleaning technique.

keep safe,
bruce.
