50-70 Shiloh Sharps Military Rifle

[Eric Johanen]

Thank's Mike. Both loads shot pretty well at 200 yards. The 1/8" DGL lube wad kept the fouling soft all they way to the muzzle and the patches pushed through with no resistance. Lube star on the muzzle so with that Swiss charge compressed it worked quite well. The paper was cut into very fine little bits and the OJ cards were clean with no lube stuck to them. Look's like all the lube was left in the barrel. My goal here is to get 4-5 shots with good accuracy and no fouling control for a hunting load. After that a blow tube or a wipe to control fouling and repeat the shooting process. It's starting to look like it can be done. With the Accurate 51-465S this can be done quite easily. (good greaser for dirty shooting).
