I started with a maxi ball, then R.E.A.L.. I hunted with the R.E.A.L. one season, but both were at best 5" groups at 50 yards.

I have some cast minie from October Country, (I think they are from LEE mold?), that between being undersized, and generally poorly cast, give nothing like repeatable results.

I have some coming from Track of the Wolf, but no data beyond being told they will need to be paper patched.

I looked at the NO EXCUSES some time ago, but was afraid they would be too long for my 1:48 twist. Any experience with those 525 gr in that twist?

The Bullshop offerings look interesting, and I will do some more research in that direction.

Thanks for the info.
