    Wasalmonslayer, you, Sir, did truly come up with a nice shooting bullet. Several others have praised it, and I'll add myself to the list. Fired it for the first time today in both the 45 ACP and 45...

    Thanks. I guessed about 0.130. Let's see how close I come. I'm fairly new to 45 ACP. I'd also be interested in what OAL you're using if you load it for a full-sized 1911. I know that's kind of a...

    John, that's a good point. BC wouldn't be spectacular with that flat nose. But, I'm interested in the BC for the stuff I shoot over the chronograph. If you have it, you can compute the muzzle...

    Arsenal Molds 452-230 WFN BC?

    Back in 2019 Wasalmonslayer ran a group buy for Arsenal Molds 452-230 WFN. Has anyone who's using that bullet pondered what the BC might be? If so, I'm interested in your thoughts.

    No more wood in my bores, either, having created one disaster with dowell sections a few years back. Go to your hardware store and buy a length of cold rolled steel of the appropriate diameter. Put a...

    I'm the guilty party that resurrected this thread, or as Char-Gar put it, I guess I created a zombie. I've been wavering back and forth on the whole filler issue, and Deputy Al's post is a good...

    Is This One of Those Combinations?

    Larry & Crew,

    I'm considering trying Dacron/Polyfill batting for a filler and have been reviewing old threads on the subject. Would this be one of those inappropriate combinations? 303 British,...
