.44-77 hunting load questions.

[Distant Thunder]

Kurt,
You did an excellent job explaining you technique, bullets and load. Picture help a lot.
I always used a grease groove bullet in my .50-70 and could load and as many as needed, I just want to use paper patch in the .44-77 and I know it was and can be done. How is the question and you have answered that very well.

I had heard of using a copper disk before and I even remember seeing a picture, but I don't recall them being cupped quite that much. Interesting.
Getting the lube cookie to spread over the bore and not just fly out muzzle looking the same as it did when it was loaded seems to be the problem.

I will probably try as many things as I can to see what works best for me. I have found some more info and I'm reading thru that.
I almost got some felt wads that I will try, but those will get tossed out the very first time I pull a neck off one of my .44-77 cases! There not cheap.

Thank you for your help. I'll be talking to you some more I am sure.
