I have a couple .50 rifles with "tight" bores. With the Kentucky I contacted Pedersoli and with the common .490 ball they suggest using a .010 patch. The combination works great when loading. The retrieved patches are being shredded. It seems .010 is just not thick enough for either gun. I am currently looking into getting a RB mold in .480 and use that with a heavy durable patch.
The question: is there something else I can try to get the desired results of an intact patch leaving the muzzle?
