I don't know for ceratin either mulie. i have seen attempts in CVA .50 cal with pure lead full bore conicals, in experienced hands and they were not real impressive.like i said maybe they can and if so i would buy one toot sweet. if not then it's a knight, which are excellent full bore lead conical shooters..

My Accura 45 shot the 300gr PB Plat, PR Ultimate Tipped 360gr and the Hornady 285 GP fairly good. It preferred the 300gr PB Plat that is discontinued IIRC. Shot at a low fps it is probably fine but avoid heavy loads. If you really want to shoot lead conical 45s...get a White. Almost nothing will match them with cheap subs and cheap lead. The White Super 91 in 451 is just plain nasty and will handle bullets near 500grs at 1300fps or more...I even know where one is in SS for $300 IIRC.

Why not try sabotless? all they need is a couple sizing dies or one expensive Swinglock adjustable die. A 1-28 twist should shoot upto a 250gr ok with a heavy amount of BH209. Parker 250gr BEs are one of the easiest to get fitted and shooting well. In a 50cal the bullet selection isnt a problem for sabotless but sizing dies are an issue. Faster twists like 1-24 make it much easier too. Slow twist like my Knight 45 are a PITA and a 225gr is about max sabotless. The Original with the 1-20 though will shoot big lead or sabotless just fine. It just takes more load work.

Oh those poor 900,000 fools. :eek2: Don't they know about those Ford Pintos blowing up in the 1970's? :s2: :s2:

Yeah GM. I had them fooled for years and they never caught on. But my conscience got the best of me.

They say confession is good for the soul. So I thought all of the other shills out there would finally come clean.

You guys are small time. I have the whole internet fooled.

Chrysler dodge jeep man myself.....in 22 years of driving, I have never owned anything else!!

GM, i want a rifle that is being made now and i may need something for later on.next best thing to a white is a Knight lol. my lil wolverine .50 cal shoots 460 gr connies excellent. and i think you know the 45 cal 1:30 Knights shoot 330 -380 gr connies with excellent accuracy also..if a 1:25 45 cal CVA will shoot connies like a knight, i would be all over it.Ray

GM i won't shoot a PB lol!

I think all current CVA 45s are 1-28 not 1-25. The 45-300gr PB really isnt that bad, just dont push it. The rest suck IMO. Shoot it slow like any other conical. Those are the only three i remember shooting. It shot a 200gr SST and 100gr BH209 just fine so i didn't play with conicals too much and the bore was so large that sabotless would have been a PITA to shoot the bullets i wanted to try. Then i did try a few modded bullets and when the powder charge got high enough to stabilize them, the primers started to flow so i gave up on sabotless for awhile and sold it.

I will be playing with sabotless again before the season starts and my new bullets arrive.

TYpo, meant 1:28 sorry!
