44-77 Sharps paper patched load

[Eric Johanen]

Thank you Kurt. I'll PM you details. My last target shot was with 440 grain bullets and OE 2 fg. Pretty good results for the first time with that load. I have a very good supply of KIK 2 fg so I'll give it a try. 1/18 will be good as I am casting some 1/20 with the Brook's mold for steel banging. I'm using 3/16 grease wad of either SPG or DGL and both are working well, nice lube star on the muzzle with no leading observed. Also observed is the powder is combusting very well in the bottle necked case. When washing them up the water is a whole lot cleaner than the straight cases. Venturie effect? I am liking this rifle!
