    I agree with Ben, that some shoot better if all of the grooves are not filled. On the other hand, big long multi groove blts just plain look cool with all the grooves filled with a red or blue lube. The real answer, is to test and find out the answer on the number of grooves to fill yourself. To me half the fun of loading and shooting is testing the results.

    You can buy a dozen. They will come in a postage due envelope. Are you sure you would really want a pound? That takes a huge warehouse to store them.
    The solid soft lead bullet is undoubtably the best and most satisfactory expanding bullet that has ever been designed. It invariably mushrooms perfectly, and never breaks up. With the metal base that is essential for velocities of 2000 f.s. and upwards to protect the naked base, these metal-based soft lead bullets are splendid.

    Forget everything you know about loading jacketed bullets. This is a whole new ball game!
