    Do you know if the Keith driving band was large enough to seat the boolit into the throat? I'd think if it did it'd be the cat's meow. I don't remember reading if it did or not. By any chance do you...

    Best Boolit Alignment Technique in Revolvers

    Up to this point in my life I've worked up some decent loads in my revolvers using both off-the-shelf boolit molds and semi-custom molds from Accurate. In an effort to squeeze every bit of accuracy...
