I can not imagine I really want to try some APP - but I git a real feeling it might be different....
Mike that link i posted the price was $19 and change lol. look closely at the picture you posted. states water clean up.guess we can rule out any nitro cellulose in it like BH 209.maybe they super charged the original formula>>on a side note those conical samples came in. the .503 BS and the NE .460 gr look exactly alike, only exception being the BS seems to have a bit larger base.. thanks Ray

For me the .503 BullShops are tighter going down than the .503 NoExcuse...

Remember Dan labels this bullet a 460gr. MTNEx... for Mountain Mould NEx for the design... Dan calls his bullets No Excuse - bet you his mold is a Mountain Mould also... The real difference is the lube... I THINK Dan's Bull Shop NASA lube is a better lube... just a personal thing....

Yes the BS .503 does look like it would go down a little tighter.the lube on the BS's looks almost identical to the lube on my .460 NE's that i have had for about a year.i will try the .503 BS tomorrow and see how they fit..i think your right about the molds being the same also.Ray

I shot JSG 3f today and it was a very finely ground powder. If someone has a bottle of JSG 2f maybe they can pour some in the cap to give an idea of what its texture is. I already know APP 2f is course like kitty litter but maybe Shockeys Gold 2f is ground better which may give an indication of the Super Powders texture.
