RE: mini grease groove bullets
My 45-90 GG creedmore bullet is from BACO, with no tapered bands weighs 542, 1.416" long, 0.459. I seat the bullet 0.496" in the 2.40" case case. The front driving-band engraves the rifling about 0.030". All Starline cases are annealed, FL sized, then expanded with a 0.456 expander. Two grooves are exposed. The barrel is a Badger #4, 30" long with an 18" twist, screwed into an old roller. With its favorite charge of 1.5 Swiss and a BR-2 primer its happy to produce 6"+ groups at 600 yards, when Old Jim does his part!

That's my story, and I'm stickin' to it!
