Default decisions, about slug reloading

Well, shot went thru 40 slugs lymans 525gr. Tried two different hulls, with two different powders. Best I can pull out is 2-3" groups at 50 yards. Tried WSF, and Unique. Lyman slug also drops like a freakin hammer at 100 yards. Talking 4" or more. Has a BC of .067!!!

My crimps leave alot to be desired. Wonder if I can tighen up the groups playing around with that.

So I got to make a decision. Invest in a decent roll crimp, and another set of slugs like hammerheads, maybe buy another pound of powder SR 4576.

I could try commanders for sale at midwayusa, but no load data. Would have to use hammerhead data or simular.

I get 2MOA at 100 yards with coppersolids. Guy at slugsRus, says its the roll crimp causing my large groups. He swears roll crimp is much better.
