Default RE: Apex And Maxiballs

Just got back inside from shooting/freezing my (_!_) off.

First 3 shots were with the 315g minie, Good thing i took a small hammer!
They measured 4" group without the wad. With a wad, they would not group at all.

Took 3 shots with the 385g Lyman conical with 80g P-S and a wad. 4" low but dead center and under a 1" 3 shot group @ 100 yards.

This rifle really loved those things and i love them too! They load just like a Powerbelt and are accurate.

Just for fun, i took 3 more shots but didnt use a wad and it was more like a 9" group. This bullet really needs a wad or else it just will not print good.

Idahoron, Thanks for sending these! I really do like this bullet a lot. Can you give me some info on these? I'd like to see if i can buy a mold and start making these my self.

I should be able to get away with wheel weights since the lead doesnt touch the bore while loading.
