Hey gander, you could be a millionaire. Buy JB Weld in bulk, repackage it and sell it at triple the price under a new label -"Gander's BulletModifier - IncreasesPerformance ofML Bullets". Us ML guys will buy just about anything. :D

That may be more true than you would believe. Machine a simple brass point out of brazeing rod and JB weld it in and the penatration and capability for use with heavy loads would increase a lot. Lee

:Dno thanks.

I did however email powerbelt and ask if they could possibly consider making a flat nose powerbelt and offer it in the lighter weight powerbelts. Always worth a shot. I made sure to include that there was others on the forums wanting a new bullet without the hollow point.

Howzeabout a PB wadcutter! :D

Ok i just got inside. i found a screw that fit the size of the hole. i ground it down until it fit flush with the bullet. I am going to epoxy it now once i take some pics. I'll test that one tomorrow.

You guys havin fun with keeping me busy over here? :D

Why should bullets costing over $1 each need any modification to work?

And should not each package clearly state what its best intended usage and powder loads be?

Its packaged with each load and on their website.

Its all for fun and games steve. Dont be such a new yoka, ease the pace and enjoy the fun. Lord knows this forum needs some kind of topic to keep us with some kind of entertainment :D

I do like the brass tip idea. Wonder who i could have make me one?

RE: Powerbelt Test day
 

I believe that the ideas for most of the improvement you see happing in muzzleloading are started in the field by customers. Sabot inlines them sevles and a lot of small accessories started in the field, well actually I am talking about modern inlines there were a number of origanals.

RE: Powerbelt Test day
 

Just do not see the "fun" of having to modify a bullet that is too expensive to begin with to get it to proform beyond its limited capabilities.The last thing I want is too be afield with a load that will not work at all ranges 1 yd to 150 and at any shot angle that presents itself. Info given across the net and thru your own testing clearly shows PB's are not that choice - and are one of the most expensive out there to boot.

:D:D:D(for fun)
