Well the Slick Loads shoot awesome. I did find that they shoot a heck of a lot tighter when you lightly push them onto the powder. I fired 3 shots with light pressure and then 2 with very firm pressure and those 2 shots opened up big time. Im using 100gr blackhorn209 so i think next time i will up it to 110gr and see how it goes.

just added these last night, these are the durasight quick detach scope mounts.




I did recover 7 of these bullets and they are made of soft pure lead. They are basically a powerbelt without the nipple/skirt. I did some testing today and these load easier than powerbelts, you can start the bullet with 2 fingers on the range rod and then seat it with one finger, very smooth loading. I recovered with of the sabots as well. Just have to take some pictures right now.

Tomorrow i will be setting up my sand box to play in and do some wet sand testing to see how well these hold up.
