Pretty impressive for 50grn load.

 

[ronlaughlin]

Went looking for the bullet, alas only found

 

[snapbang]

Ron, I have more of those bullets coming. If you like Illl send you a few more bullets to attempt capture.

 

[ronlaughlin]

Yes, sure, you bet.

 

[snapbang]

I expect them soon and will send to you asap.

I also have some 545 grain and 620 grain conicals coming. Want those also .

 

[ronlaughlin]

Would rather concentrate on the 455 grain bullet, nothing heavier.

 

[snapbang]

ok

 

[LBAhunter]

I hope you are able to capture it the 2nd time. I want to see how it expands or not.....lol.....

 

[snapbang]

LBAhunter.I have a notice they are shipped. I only live a few hundred miles away. Ill get them to Ron ASAP

 

[LBAhunter]

snapbang
Where you get those bullets from?

 

[snapbang]

Bullet from Mr. Hollowpoint.

I just got a new batch yesterday. I bought
30 of the 450 hollow point that shot to the same hole with 64gbw T7, wad, nasa lube,

Knight Elite. .50 1/28

I also bought for experimenting
10 of the 545 solid and
10 of the 620 solid





He also sent me 10 samples of the 525 HP-Micro groove below.


Will let everyone know how they shoot

He will size them to whatever size you want. I have never received an order without a few samples he sends for free. I get .503 for the Knight.

I would think these would do well in a BP rifle ,my BIL has a 45 cal high power air rifle and they work very well

Ron’s been doing these tests for quite some time now. Evidence of all the trees felled in the background used for bullet stops.
This year he and IdahoLewis are candidates for the coveted MLOA !
Or as known the “Muzzleloader Oscar Award.*
