Speaking of 50's...the Govt Round

[Stephen Borud]

Caprock I am shooting the 50-70 and the 50-100 with paper patch bullets, in fact I have never shot a greaser in any of my 6 Shilohs. I use 70 grains of Fg, .023 card, 3/16" lube, .023 card and I like to seat my bullets for hunting .250 in the case. I shoot a .494 425-450 grain bullet wrapped with 9 lbs onion skin paper. I have a 1-36 twist in both of my 50s so the liter bullets work best. With your twist it will have to be a longer heavier bullet. I know Mr Kurt and Rick shoot faster twist 50s, they can assist you on the bullet options.
