RE: Baco Jim 442 500
I thought my alloy would be somewhat soft for best results. I'm waiting for additional lead to mix with pewter at a 1-17 ratio. The bullets base grew from .442" to .445" after firing. The bore ride section expanded from. 433" to .442". That doesn't leave much room for the paper patch. The overall length shortened from 1.39" to 1.36". I thought that the bases looked pretty good, not much finning at the rifling. Tim
