The .35 should shoot flatter than the 38-55.
Heck, my 44-40 shoots flatter than my 38-55.
But I like all three cartridges.

I think that the CB's are running out of poof at 40 yards. My deaf self could hear the bullets impact the cardboard.[emoji16]
I hunt with high speed shorts and long rifle- I use the CBs for play....

I cast some Lee 105 SWC, some C309170F, and some 309 230 gr bullets.
And I answered a "What if" question by reloading and test firing two 2-1/2" .410 shells featuring FFFFG and 7-1/2 shot.
They'll...

Smokeless powder is a propellant.
Black powder is an explosive.

Burn rate charts and data for another cartridge with similar case capacity and bullet weight are tools I use for such enterprise.

There's still some pepper, but I'm seeing some improvement on the action.
It'll be fun teaching her to shoot it; a 511 is what I learned...

I've used a bunch of COWW over the years but the supply is drying up. I mostly use berm scrap but I've fallen back on this wheelweight a few times.....it is close to WW.

Not the same rifle but same caliber; I hope this ( from Lyman 45th) helps.
Make sure there's no deer behind the one you are shooting at- a single deer won't stop that .58 chunk of...

For me, H110/W296 makes the .30 Carbine, .300BO, and .41 magnum be "all they can be"- perfectly. No problems using it for what it is.

I got the oven cleaner tip from a guy at a gun show years ago. His milsurp rifles were always the cleanest ones. It removes cosmoline better and safer than the old paintbrush and gasoline method!

Oven cleaner is great for removing years of Wisconsin dirt from the stock. The buttplate screws required some oomph to remove-they are so rotten that they're getting tossed.
I'm not shooting for...

An update- this evening Academy had 12 and 20 gauge Remington Shur Shot shells for $9.99/25.
Monarch (Spanish) 12s and 20s for the same price.
Still no .410s to be had.
I've enough shells, I just...

It will affect dove hunting for sure.
Limited expensive 12 gauge, NO 20 gauge, 16 and 28 strangely in stock, NO .410 shells.

Filing. Sanding. Filing. Sanding. Rinse, Repeat.
I think I’ll take a break and refinish the stock.
Where’s that Easy Off at?

Every time I pulled my 870 out of the golf bag, everyone ran……��

Long ago I was given a carton of 500 Lazer Cast 170 gr FN bullets. At .307”- they leaded my 94 up quickly. I melted and recast the last 400 into Lee C309150F, sized .309” and tumble lubed.
No more...

I have sent a PM, yeahbub.

What is the bullet weight?
Good shooting, sounds like you're on to something there.

Very nice, I'm jealous. Take the grips off, field strip it and put the parts in the dishwasher after shooting. It works well.

The Naval Jelly helped a lot. Miles to go, though.
From what I make out on the stamps, looks like it was made in May...

Those look great. I’m looking forward to the range report.
It’s a fun little cartridge.

In an AR15, seat to magazine length. If they won't chamber, try seating a little deeper. I hate it when ejecting an unfired round pulls the bullet out and spills powder into the action.
