I will post some pictures tomorrow -- but shot some more to day with the same load I had used before in my Redhawk .41 --15.5 AA#9 and my MM 252 gr bullet -- at 25 yards - both with and with out shot just fine - I even tried my own lube and it shot fine. the wind was blowing badly -- it could not pick up my toyota pick up it was really shaking it-- after the pictures -- I next move back to 50-60 yards and see how they do- about the only lesson I have learned from all this is-- for plinkling or even some serious hunting I can put on the check or not-- I will also try this in my faster .41 GNR and then in the .41 Marlin -- I sure this applies more to 6 guns than to rifles -- I guess - at least it would seem that way-- these were were again not sized- but really need some as they have to be pushed to seat flush--- I will try again to take them down by softening the metal and WD them. all in all it is fun -- my .3 worth which is about what a GC costs
