RE: 44mag / 454 casull
I just got through shooting 50 rounds of Hornady xtp 300 gns pushed by 31 gn H-110 through my FA .454. I guess I should have checked the bore after every few rounds, probably should have cleaned it after every few rounds. I didn' t do either and the Hornadys made a mess. I' ve never seen so much copper in a barrel. The Hornady tech rep said that I could load the bullet up to 31.5 gn H-110. After 3 days of scrubbing and soaking the barrel now looks ok. Oh yeah, the Hornadys are .452 in diameter. Any thoughts on this?
