A little fun with RBs

[Jim]

I got to pokin' around in my mold box this afternoon and found a .330 RB mold. I'll be dang, didn't even know I had one. After a few minutes, I had a small handful cast up. I pushed some through a .311 sizer die and loaded them in some .308 cases with 1 gr. of Bullseye over large magnum rifle primers. Shot just like a .22 short. It went through one side of a 30 gallon oil drum and dimpled the other side pretty good. Tried the same thing in a 8MM mauser, except no sizing. Same thing.
Lotta fun and very little noise.

RB are fun in a cartridge gun. I use .454 RB loaded in 45 LC conversion cylinder for my Pietta Remmie 1858, 6 grains of Trail Boss and they whistle down range very accurately. Actually, with the Pietta's 1:32 twist, RB are the most accurate loads in the 45 LC so far.
