Flame suit on already.

I've been shooting Keith designed boolits in my revolvers for years. I've had good results, however:

1. I've noticed that the 230gr LFN that Blammer designed is becoming tops for accuracy out of my 41 revolvers

AND

2. I've had better results with the WFN design in my two 41 lever actions (which sadly I'm gonna be down to zero next week).

Is this more a result of chance or does it have more to do with the design? Bearing surface? ETC?

Let's have a discussion. This is more a discussion about accuracy than field performance.

I thought Veral Smith designed the LFN bullet.

I thought Veral Smith designed the LFN bullet.

He did, but this particular mold I'm using, our very own Blammer drew up and was carved from aluminum by NOE.

I have found the same until recently. Usually WFN and LFN shoot better for me than SWC. I still prefer SWC though for no real scientific reason.

However; lately in the 10mm the RCBS 10mm-200-LSWC has shot inside both WFN cast and JHP bullets. Although the RCBS really looks more like a TC.
