Bronko, I was using .25 ACP ignition with CCI small pistol primers.

Gotbuck, I started with a clean barrel and swabbed with both sides of two 91% alcohol patches between shots. Those two patches give me an almost perfectly clean bore. The first side of the second patch picks up very little color. The second side of the second patch hardly shows any color at all. You guys really need to try swabbing with pure 91% alcohol. Start with apatch that's a little wetter than what you normally use. And don't worry about the charge getting wet. That stuff drys fast, especially when the barrel is warm.

TN/Spaniel/Cayugad, yeah - I know - try Blackhorn. OK, OK, after Christmas.

I'm not used to really leaning on the ramrod to seat the bullet down hard on the charge. With regular Harvester sabots I seat the loat firm, but don't lean on the rod.For some reason I felt I should lean on the rod and seat these sabots hard, and I know I did that for some of the shots. But I've been wondering if out of habit I seated two of the shots with lighter pressure, and that caused the fliers.
