Hi!
Nobody try the leather like wad material??
I'm still searching the right recipe for decent shoting from my .451 volunteer rifle!
I think to try 2/16 leather (3 mm)
I've tested cardwad, felt, corn, nothing...but after 4-5 shoot the groups enlarged too much!
I didn't shoot long range, for me the goal is a tight group at 100mt for muzzleload italian champinship in the whitworth category.
Actually i load a 450 grain lyman bullet on top of 64 to 67 grains of fffg (i find the fffg granulation better than ffg in that rifle)
ciao
