Default Coreys custom 260's

Corey sent me a bunch of his .452" 260gr cast bullets he makes. I tried them out today and really happy he sent them!


Shots 1 and 3 are touching. Shot 2 is the upper right hand shot. The other was an old shot on the bucket from when i was testing the powerbelt aerolites.

I THOUGHT i was shooting 100gr BH209 for this group.


But after getting more loaders with 100gr and shooting this, i knew i had screwed up and was shooting to much powder.
100gr BH209.


Remembering that i originally was going to shoot coreys 405gr .452's i had tubes filled with 80 and 90gr. Now that i knew what my mistake was i went and reloaded 3 tubes with 90gr BH209 and went out to try it. Bingo! Shot #2 is again on the far left. Not sure what thats all about but i'll get it in line.
"upper 3 shots"


I think the sabots were the mmp hph12 but corey will have to speak up on this as im not sure what they were. They loaded very nicely and i was able to start them with my thumb and then ram the bullets home with firm pressure. Kind of like loading a Thor.
