Semisane.. do you think the .575 would fit out .58 caliber rifles? I was shooting the .570 today and they loaded easy IMO. I was wondering if a tighter ball would be better.
I haven't shot my GM barreled .58 TC Hawken since last March
Cayugad. But as I recall it shot pretty well with .575 balls from a Lee mold.
