Thanks
Cayugad &
Lemoyne. That's two votes for 110 grain loads, so I guess I'll have to try that.
Before I get aggressive I want to put about 100 rounds through it to see if the sharp edges come off the lands. I have some Beartooth lapping compound around here somewhere. If necessary, two or three patched balls with that on the patches will take the edges off quite nicely.
I thought I had some .570 Hornady balls in the shooting bag and intended to try those. But I must have shot them all up in the Zouave because I couldn't find them. I'm looking forward to an all day range session in good weather with the peep sight. That will tell the tale for sure. I think I'm going to like this .58. The Zouave may end up in the classifieds. After all, how many .58's does a guy need?
