i shoot CAS and i widened mine at home with a new file and all is good for me, just take your time doing it. i marked a line on both sides of the slot as to how far i needed to go so i knew when to stop

it doesnt matter how fast/slow the charge is or how hard/soft the lead is if it doesnt fit right you will get leading. oldpapps you are correct on the "obturation". jim watson or anyone else go to castboolits.gunloads.com there is tons of good info on cast boolits

I'm useing TB in my 38 sp. derringer with a 92 gr. boolit. I'm down to 1.5 gr. and no issues yet. Thinking about trying to get it down to 1 gr. maybe less. I only use the derringer at CAS side matches.

dont rest your barrel on the wood contraption. By resting the barrel on your rest the barrel harmonics are changed. Get some actual sand bags, I made some out of old lead shot bags. Rest the fore arm on the sand bags, then you will find the true grouping of the rifle. You want NO weight on the...

I had one in nickle finish and sold it to buy single actions. Sometimes I wish I hadn't slod it.
