Howdy fella's:
Ive been wanting to try a GOOD paper patch bullet in my Uberti Hiwall. It is chambered for the great 45-70 cartridge in a 1-20" twist. I did try casting some Lyman 457132 bullets and sizing them to .452 and patching them but that didn't work out so well.
I will slug my bore and post the dimensions if I get a response.
Questions: Will someone here who patches a GOOD swaged bullet that would work in my rifle be willing to sell me some of their bullets to try?
What would be the best outlet for swaged pp'd bullets to buy from, if any?
Would a Rockchucker press be strong enough to swage the lead bullets mentioned and last or would swaging break it down eventually?
Thanks fell's
