want to try .69cal roundball

[Kuato]

Looking for some .69 cal ball to load for a couple 12ga doubles I have. The loads are Blackpowder in brass cases. Looking for some .685 diameter. The bores are cylinder choke but these are antique fluid steel barrels. I have shot them already with BP / shot loads & they shoot really well. I can trade the following:

LEE 200gr GC.308 naked
LEE 158gr .358 rnfp (162gr with my alloy. WQ WW)
Lyman 429421 SWC (250gr WQWW)
LEE 8MM MAX (250gr)

All of the above boolits are WQWW & unsized..

Let me know what you guys think..

:castmine:

I have .680's and maybe some .690's. Will either work? Later,moodyholler

[Kuato]

I guess either one will work.. Lemme know what we can workout.


Still lookin.....

Um, if you want to just buy them, Ballistic Products sells .690" and .720" round balls on their web site.. I think they also sell the mold to make them.

Lee also has a .690 RB mold. 492gr IIRC. I may have a few cast up.

Don't want to buy a mold just to try out a boolit. Money is tight & I just need a few to experiment with..

Kuato, I've got a .685 rb mold . When I make it home after work , I'll check and see how many I have cast up and pm ya. SWIAFB
