i was going thru my muzz box and thought, you know, those MAXI-BALLS 370 are great bullet for 1-48 twist thompson hawkins.

so, i took my mic and measured it and then measured my powerbelt 295.

guess what,they were both the same lenght

no wonder that 295 powerbelt shot so good out of my hawkins 1-48 .50 cal even tho its 75 grains lighter.

i think the LENGTH of bullet is something that the 1-48 twist hawkins shoots best with,short lengths like the MAXI-HUNTERS dont work, at least not fir me or THOMPSON ALSO.
