Will do Chet. Appreciate it. I'll send it back to you, or pass it on to others, whatever you want.

I don't know much about that but I weighed a box of Hornady .490 balls last night. There were only 95 in a new box of 100. They ranged from 177.3 to 178.5 gr. I divided them into 2 groups. I ended up with 42 that were between 177.3 and 177.9 and 53 that were between 178 and 178.5. He thinks you should keep them within 1/2 gr of each other.. For hunting it doesn't really matter. For target or Rondy shooting it can make a difference. The biggest thing I found out from the info was how much difference there is in measuring patches. Some compress a lot more than others. Mic-ing them regular and compressed can make a big difference in accuracy. Oh well that's enough. You can wait to get the mail to find out the rest:D

Chetmarks was kind enough to send me his copy of the Schoultz system. It's a total of 28 pages (8.5 x 11") of material directed at achieving round ball accuracy. Much of it will be "I knew that" kind of stuff for experienced round ball shooters - working up a load, loading consistency, wiping between shots,patch thickness, etc. - but the emphasis he places on patchlubrication and weighing balls was pretty interesting. I would think the package would be pretty usefulto anyone just getting in to shooting patched balls.

I asked Chet if he wanted it back or whether I should pass it along to others, and he said to pass it along.

So, who's next?? If you want to read it PM your mailing address to me. If I get more than one reply I will send it to the first one and includethe addresses of the others so it can beforwarded alongto each onein turn.
