Hi folks, I new here, just found the site. I like it.:-D I also have a question.
I am shooting a NEF 45-70, Currently I am using a 500gr (Lee) bullet cast from wheel weights. My charge is 13.2 gr of Unique. I am using a card wad next to the bullet followed by a greased felt wad. I had used this arrangement when loading BP in the cases and just carried it over for thr smokeless loads. So far I am getting good accuracy. Would I be better off using copper gas check? At 100 yards I am getting groups averaging 2 to 2.5 inches.:)
With the loads I am using do you think that there is anything to gain by using a gas check?:confused:
