To be honest. I'm hoping a Thor with fit my Triumph. You never know from gun to gun if one will fit right.

If not i'll try the Feds.

The first thing I would do when you get that Triumph is run a couple hundred strokes of JB's bore paste - that made a night and day difference in my Triumph. After I do that I could load just about anything I wanted to.

Just tween you and I might have an even better bullet coming - 262 grains.

You might also want to think about modifying the BP. I will shoot BH just the way it is but you will get many more shots and better consistent ignition with a modified plug.

I think I sent one with the Triumph you got didn't I?

I think so, but my memory isn't the greatest. What mods do you do?

Open the flash channel to 5/32" and install a Lehigh Savage Vent Liner.

When you get the rifle use the stock plug and see how it performs. My original Triumph plug worked well for the amount that I shot it.

I hope it works, because I can't do those mods. I live in an apartment.

This problem can be avoided by simply removing the BP, sliding the bullets through the bore nose first, and out onto a soft pad. They will then be sized and can be started with finger pressure.

Yes, I posted that years ago.

However, some of the CVA rifles have a bore so small, the FPBs are too big for them and they will not work

Lee .501 lube sizer and a cheap Lee hand press. You might need a steel ball bearing to fit the cupped base. If you already have a press you are looking at about $21.

Problem solved.
