I've always been a firm believer that modern times call for modern components. ie; lead did not belong in a barrel until you first covered it in copper..However I saw a mould I just couldnt walk away from. Its a double cavity LBC WFN 458 325 grain with gas check. The other reason I shunned cast is due to the fact that to get a material hard enough for any worthwhile killing FPS you were instantly into fouling. I think these bullets could be cast out of kryptonite and still kill. Their almost full wad cutter, so for the brush I hunt they should be sweet. The only reason I like to keep the 45/70 marlin up to a respectable fps is that even though its mainly 50 yd shooting,you never know when your going to see one on a beaver dam at 100. I like to keep the ability to point and click to atleast 100.So before I run a single one of these down the barrel I would really appreciate a guidline of precautions.I have an abundant supply of wheel weights and H4198,so I'm looking for things like should I lube the bore first? What size should I make em to? What lube to use?What max fps? Anything else you could think of to prevent a mess on my hands......
