Trying to put together a obsolete cartridge [500/450 No.1 BPE] and PP bullet combo in a old 1890"s Husqvarna Rolling Block.
Was wondering a couple things.....what is the ideal paper thickness with two wraps to cut freely from the bullet in most rifles?
I have access to several types of paper and I believe a good paper for PP but it might be to thin if my memory serves me correct for past conversations here. The paper I plan to use is .002 thick....
I am gonna buy a mold soon and was wondering what most think about a Plain Base or Gas Check base when it comes to wrapping paper. Seems my memory says most like gas checked if you can't have a cavity to tuck the paper in. Something about CG bases not tearing the paper as bad??
Thanks, Randall
