Little Missy

[Kurt]

I just got the second 200 Starline cases for the .40-65 CPA I call little Missy and I went to the range and 100 of the new cases to fit the chamber. I loaded these with a full case to the mouth using some old 2001 regular 1F Goex to do this job and man I forgot just how dirty this powder was. Comparing the old Goex 1F to what I been seeing with the 2F OE is unreal, but I will say that using a blow tube with a very hot barrel after many rounds fired it hydrated well and I had no problem chambering a tight bullet.
The good news........I shot 5 rounds before starting blowing out cases with good rounds using cases that have been shot several times loaded with 58 grains of 2F OE and a 427 gr 1.460" long .494" diameter Elliptical from a custom mould I had Jim at Buff Arms make that shot very well. I put the first shot on a swinger at 200 yards and 5 on paper sitting next to the swinger. Two shots where low and left 1" apart side by side and a 2 MOA sight change up and right three shots 1 3/8" two cut 3/8" almost in the same hole.
I'm very impressed with the way this rifle is showing promise so far.
