Default RE: Anyone ever use these conicals ?

The minnies you might not get any accuracy out of. I make my own minnies from the same mold Bill uses. The accuracy is not to my hunting standards and definately not to target standard. But they are a blast to shoot just because of the size. Especially if you like shooting water bottles.

They shoot out of inlines also traditionals,but they are a VERY SLIP FIT conical... Put it this way, if you load your rifle and change your mind, you can shake them back out the end of thebarrel. For that reason alone I do not trust them. I do not want them coming off the powder charge and possibly instead of being a projectile, becoming a barrel obstruction. Now they do shoot well out of some model rifles mind you ... just none that I own.

If you asked me if I would recommend the Minnie I would tell you save your money and get more maxiball. They will give you better accuracy and are just as easy to load and shoot.
