Has anyone tried using the Paco tool on any of the CCI CB short or long
ammunition to make them a little more accurate ?
Thanks

Mine are about .357 and they did Great in about all of my .357 Revolvers
with 15-15.5 gr of IMR 4227.

Accuracy was Great in Ruger 4 5/8 inch barrel with W 296---1 1/4 inch groups

about 3 inches...
