sharps 74 40 70 load

[ken s]

What are you doing for fouling control between shots?

I run one wet rag to the muzzle, drop it, then run a dry. I also use a chamber wiper.
While the shells 'stick' a little, (they do eject on a good push), I found the shells pop out easily WITHOUT WIPING BETWEEN SHOTS. Not something I think would do well in the long run...

load. new Brooks 330 RN grooved bullet, (nice mold)
60 2f Old E.
one 060 veggie and two newspaper wads on top of it. (prevents the wad from
sticking on the bullet)
accuracy is OK, at 100 but no nail driver. 4 to 5 inches. with some flyers.
I size the 410 bullet with a 410 RCBS sizer and SPG lube. base wiped.
very slight factory crimp die touch to hold bullet ...chamber just fine.

Ken, 4 to 5 inches at 100 with some flyers is not very good... Just thought you would like to know. Shoot straight, rdnck.

Well, I know 4 inches at 100 is not top accuracy for a $4000 Shiloh with a badger barrel and expensive sights. I have one...one inch at 100 constantly...50 90, #1 heavy,
custom all the way. 590 Postell,
BUT, this is an original, and I want to see just how good it shoots.
Expectations are not as high. Getting it to work right is half the fun.

I wish I had an original that shot like that... Shoot sharp, Mike

is it original?
the ammunition it takes suggests not.
