I just finished slugging the Hastings barrel. It came out at .727 on all of the grooves.
I will send you a PM on your offer.

So is there any news on this adventure?
No sir. I got a couple of pm's from z375, but haven't heard from him in a few days. He said he had been working on the farm.
He wanted to send me some of his newly cast Lymasn "TYPE" slugs, and I also wanted to try his Paradox boolits.
He was going to check and see how much the postage would be. I imagine he will be getting hold of me before too long.
I will let you know when something happens.

Sorry for the long hiatus, my health took a beating and thankfully things are much better now. LittleJack will be the first guy to test the new full-bore Lyman and will be sending him a few of the original Paradox slugs for tests too. Hopefully test result pics and info will be posted on this thread as and when they happen!
z- Glad you're feeling better. Hope the testing of the fullbore slugs goes well.
best wishes- oldandslow
Thank you very much Zubin.
Again, I am very glad to hear that your health is improved. I pray that it will continue sir.
Regards
Jack
The slugs are in the mail! Watch this space for the test results!!
Well, the testing was finally done through a friend's William Evans 12ga Paradox SXS, just to see what these little puppies are capable of!! Test results posted in the "Casting for Shotguns" forum!!
