I would bet that the Buffalo Ball-ets will shoot lights out out of that slow twist barrel. Time will tell. They will be in the mail tomorrow.

Thanks buddy. I have a problem though. I Googled my brains out, and I can't find any info on new stock ball-ets being sold. Are they still being made? I'd hate to like them, and then not be able to buy them.

REAL bullets would come close to the length of the PA bullets. You just never know what that twist will shoot until you give it a go. My 1:48 twists arent supposed to be shooting a 454gr conical the way they do.
|
My problem with the REAL bullets is they always loaded too loose. Those were in TC sidelocks though. Not sure about the GPR?
|
As far as I know the only thing close to the Buffalo's is the Hornady PA's. I thought the Buffalo's were discontinued. ??? There is also the Keiths availble from PR Bullets but they are longer than the Buffalo Ball-ets.
Buffalo Maxi Ball-et 270 gr .643" lg Buffalo Ball-et 245 gr .563" lg Ultimate 1 Keith HP 300 gr .735" lg HA |

Is Your 50 cal barrel is bigger than .517? Ron It better not be .517. A PRB will fall through. That seems big Ron. What size it your barrel? |
I have 245 grain Buffalo Bullet Ball-ets. Do you think they would shoot well? I can't remember trying them. But might give them a shot tomorrow. I have a 50 with a 1-66 twist.

I thought you had one of everything? :) |
Muley, if your ranges aren't going to be too long you could always load with two patched balls and double the weight you're putting on target. At 50 yards two balls will usually hit within an inch and a half of each other.
