Lyman alloy

[Kurt]

Here is another example with a soft cork wad.
But this one I used a roll of 95/5 solder cast with 20# lead and it s not a hard alloy. I don't remember for sure because I lost the records for some of the loads.

I liked using a cork wad because it did a fine job holding the gas back lowering the verticals but I got those unexplained dirt diggers on and off during a match.
These bullets are a head scratcher for sure because I would think when the charge goes off the bullet base would show the most obturation buy these shows more nose setback.

The left bullet is an error, that 1/8" card was a 1/16" (.06")
