Old E

[Lumpy Grits]

Got 2# of 1.5 and the same of 2F Old E yesterday on my weekly trip by Graf's.

Today, I dropped 68.0 gr. of 1.5 Swiss onto the scales then reloaded the measure with 1.5 Old E. The scale reading was 59.0, same volumne.

Interesting !

Smells a little different too and it does not "shine". Also is a smaller size granular than the Swiss, although it filled a 45/70 case to the same level as the Swiss, about 0.400 below the case mouth. The Old E will need to be compressed about 0.200 to seat the bullet.

Next project is to load a few cases with the BACO Money Bullet and volumne amounts of both powders and head to the range, probally next week.


More later,

At least you can find some.
Nodangbody around here even sells BP any more......
Look forward to your report.
