I have used Seth Cole #55, #56 and #57..

#55 rips to shreds for the most part.. But have settled for using #57. I is thicker than the 55 and tough.. When fired the outer layer shreds and the inner wrap comes off in a big piece right out of the muzzle..

Dirty Steve...

Consider the fact that your bullet did not fully upset to the groove depth. A big wrap is the indication. Accuracy at say a 1000 yards might be less than optimal.

The fatter the bullet the thinner the paper, has proven the most accurate in my Shilohs.
