Hi everyone,
I have been trying to reload my Colt Army Special in 41 long colt for 6 months now. I've now finally loaded boolits for this firearm and I am using a 195gr heel boolit sized to .406 as per Harryo's website. The loaded cartridges load nicely in the cylinder but they do not fit the bore. I believe my bore to be around .401 in diameter.
I understand that heel based boolits are supposed to be slightly larger than the bore but is it safe for me to shoot these .406 boolits in my .401 bore?
Thanks.
