I have heard that he was going to produce some thors with a larger bell skirt section so you can size them to different sized bores, like the FPB. Anyone know if he ever got those into production?

Nuttin yet that I know of. He was going to use a Graphite " black Thor" to make a one size fits all but Im not sure how that has turned out.

Thanks, I will email him and see where he is at. I am now planning a buck and cow muzzleloading hunt in CO and would sure like to use the 300 gr ballistic tip but even the .503 is too small for my Knight LRH.

I have tried no escuses and they practically fall out of the barrel on this gun. Especially since I like to shoot BH 209, that doesn't work. Guess I could try and paper wrap the bullet. Also thought about trying Bull Shop, but they are so hard to order.

Try knurling the Thors up for a tighter fit. This way you'll get a perfect fit for the BH209 to go off cleanly.

What unit you hunting?

How would you knurl a solid copper bullet?

with a bastard file or 2. The smokeless guys are using the Thors and doing this.

Interesting read. Just wonder about the uniformity, but may have to try it.

Thors are tough. I guess you could knurl them with enough pressure.

I know i've had some Thors fit so tight when I was trying to get the right size I thought it was going to get stuck in the barrel. It barely left any rifling marks on it.

However, rifling isn't a file, so it will probably work ok. I should have tried it before giving my Thors away. Hi Jon.
