RE: .50cal Renegade Questions
It's your preference to shoot roundballs, and that's fine. But don't stay away from conicals for leading reasons. I've shot conicals in 50 and 54 cal Renegades for years with no leading problems. I don't think you could generate enough fps with normal loads of BP or Pyrodexin a 1:48 twist to create leading problems.
A 54 cal RB is "better" than a 50 cal RB IMO, but as others have said on this forum, dead is dead.
