OK here is my project:
Old Remington side lever single shot (Nitro proofed bbl)
Lyman target 17A sight on dovetailed ramp for a front sight.
Mid range hunters staff mounted on metal rear tang.
My idea is to shoot roundball cartidges made up of 12 ga brass cases loaded with whatever charge of Holy Black is deemed appropriate. With wad column built out of the necessary wad materials and SPG lube to position the Round ball so that I can crimp the case just over the ogive.
Here's my concern:
The bbl (no choke constriction) measures .7275 my round ball of choice (for fit in the brass magtech cases) measures .735. I am looking at 9.5 thousandths of interference (although only at the ogive which is a very small area). What do you think? Will it unwrap:(
