Well, we have a bumper crop of fancy rats this spring.
SO.... today I stopped in at the LGS that specializes in blackpowder and CAS guns to see if round balls were available.
Heck yes. I picked up a box each of .310" and .433" Hornady rb- to make squirrel loads for my 30-40 Krag, 30-06, and 44-40.
I skip the 30-30 because mine is a controlled feed Mauser 93 that doesn't eat stubby ammo.
Yes, I could use a .22 rifle or a shotgun- but where's the sport in that, Jethro?
I dont size the brass for these loads. The 30-40 has extra LLA on top to stick the ball in the neck better.
