Yeah, that is good stuff. Odd about #2, I agree. That one ragged hole is pretty sweet though! Little bit more kick on those wasn't there :)
So with the lock ease, refresh me on your method of using it? I am going to try it in the spring... I have a couple that give me that flyer. |

Glad to see my bullets are still shooting well for you. Your grouping is pretty typical of what I and others get with rifles from a 1-20 to 1-30 twist bbls. Also depending on what White I shoot either 70 or 75gr of 777-3F seems to work best for me as well. As soon as the weather breaks a little I'm going to some Swiss 3F. I use to shoot Swiss, but its been so long I forget what load I was using.
I guess what Grouse said could happen, but with the wide flat metaplat I don't think that happened, but who knows. Sometimes the ML God's just like to mess things up on us. GRIN |

Dos White used to recommend Pyro P over RS. At the inline matches though his team used Swiss in the later years with the 40s and the "Varminter" rifle. His bullets were pretty much heavy for caliber all the time.
All i use is Swiss 3FG and BH209 even with conicals. BH209 seems to work fine if the conical is sized correctly and a fiber wad is used. 70gr worked well with Ed's 350gr and NE 460gr conicals. 80gr also worked well with the 460gr but i would not advise going over than. Recoil gets pretty stiff when pushing a 460gr bullet over 1400fps. |
I love those 465's. When I get a flyer like #2 I always wonder if the felt wad somehow got cocked during the loading process.

So with the lock ease, refresh me on your method of using it? I am going to try it in the spring... I have a couple that give me that flyer. From storage I wet swab ( alcohol and wiper fluid ) the oil out. Dry Swab it good and dry Apply Lockease to a patch and run it in good. Then, after the Lockease drys, minutes to weeks later, I pop a couple of primers and load on top. It has really helped me with my flyers. I suppose my cleaning and storage technique causes the flyers but they are a problem for me. I use BC Bore Scrubber to clean and BC Barricade for storage BTW. Love everything about it but the flyers |
Guess I need to shoot some of Ed's lead that I have now....
BTW 80gr of T73Fg is my go to load with the .451/480 Bullshop. I have killed two deer with that load now for several seasons. Most are DRT or within sight. |
