RE: .44-77 PP bullets.
Jim,
How deep are the grooves in that .50?
I get lead smears in my .40 and .44's using the 55Y. It starts on the sharp land edges and after a 1/2 box (50 or so)or so they smear it on the flats. A double wrap is just too thin for my rifles and it does not matter if I use a lube wad or not.
I ended up doing a triple wrap just to get rid of the Yellow, but I have to run it through a die so they will chamber but the accuracy did not suffer doing this.
