Development of PP loads for the .44-77.

[J.B.]

No problem here Jim... happy with any and all helpful advice. I've only dabbled in pp now and again & I'd like to get a handle on it. Too much time to fiddle and no time spent testing is one problem that has always plagued me. Just finding that with these dd bullets it seems the finer paper is working better at conforming to the variation between shank and base. The flat base is a new experience too. Parallel bullets with cup bases won't phase me at all after this . That Gibbs ogive runs from a fair way back on the shank so the patches are coming up shorter in order to stay even. The old story really.. " won't know till I give it a go " ! Should provide some entertainment for the gg brigade at our next match...no matter what the result. . Watching and reading with interest. I may try wet patching too...as I always use to do..but I've got enough to deal with now without adding water
