Guys, you have me wanting to try paper patching. But funds are limited, and my head is spinning a little with all the information I have tried to digest.

Can you tell me if I can do anything with what I have already?

TLC432-265RF bullet mold. Drops CB at .436". Rossi M92 has a bore diameter of .424 and a groove diameter of .430".

With the right sizer die and paper, can I make it work?

Slug your bore and size the bullet .001/.0015 over bore diameter. Wrap it with 2 wraps of paper (I use 16# green bar computer paper). Lube it with any lube you have on hand and run through a push through die to remove the excess lube. Load and go shoot!

Only thing you should have to buy is the appropriate push through sizer and some paper.

Say, Fire_stick, .... ummm.... there in your avitar.... you seem to be doing just fine with paper patching!:mrgreen:

All I can say at this point is there is some serious promise so far but aside from that, it is a heap of fun!:Fire: I was amazed at how clean my rifle bore was!
