Paper Question

RE: Paper Question
Hi Gavin,

No I never had damage and I don't lube the patch. Maybe a slightly oversized soft bullet might swage the base up before it enters the die and cause the damage ?? I don't know.
I use a 1/17 T/L alloy as well as a T/L/antimony alloy mix and the paper runs from .0017 to .0022. I dont use the real thin paper.

Hey 25# printer paper works good. I patch some of my .44 cal. up for the .45's and they work just great also Big Grin
Bill Bagwell wanted to cast some with my .44 mould for his .45 business rifle and he wrapped them with the 25# printer paper to get the proper diameter and shot a very tight group at 400 yards doing it LOL.

Stay well J.B.
