RE: 44-70-380 test
Mike,

What is the naked diameter of that round nose?
With that short curve of the round nose and long bearing surface I would pick a paper that will give you a of .436 or .435 even with your alloy your using instead of partially wrapping the bullet using the thicker paper. You dont need to have that bullet getting pushed out of shape into that thin gap.
I dont know what the distance you shot at those targets but they sure show promise.
