    Thanks for sharing this video link. Was surprised to see how little powder he put in the pan. Looked like it barely covered the bottom. My questions is why are the pans so big when you don't need all that space for powder?

    Good question. I think it may have to do with the geometry of the lock, and using the available area.
    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!
