recoil with these rifles is not near what i expected.. not really close to my big centerfire rifles.. heavy load in my 45 with 540's is nothing like a 12 gauge magnum load.. The 600 will probably be quite a boost.. i got em to see how they group in the fast twist barrel really, i'll know tomorrow..I got some 515g cast bullets for my .50 sidelock that I haven't shot yet. They ought to have a nice thump to them too.
That will be the heaviest bullets I've ever shot.
That’s really cool & very interesting. I would like to hear four range report as well. I hope everything goes right with them.recoil with these rifles is not near what i expected.. not really close to my big centerfire rifles.. heavy load in my 45 with 540's is nothing like a 12 gauge magnum load..

Cool! You should have all your bases covered with the sizing set. I found mine to be .503 with cast loads great. I have .40 & .45 adj sizing dies, I’ll have one in .50 too eventuallyI have a no excuses 50 caliber sizing set to try out when I get some more free time. That 600gr bullet looks like a beast!
Would be very interested in your range report.
This rifle loves the 495gr no excuses bullet,, as a matter of fact it out groups my 45 cal fast twist barreled rifles so far... its a 24 twist green mtn 24 twist (LRH). i'll post something tomorrow evening.That’s really cool & very interesting.

Here’s the .503 465g that I really will be my “ go-to “ bullet. This 515g does look nice though doesn’t it. I’ll post when I get around to shooting them. I have some more really nice cast in 330gHP & 350g I’m looking forward to seeing what this 1:24 twist likes. And I have some 420g NE’s too. So, testing will be fun & a great learning experience for me.
24 Green mtn LRHWhat is the twist on your Renegae Flintlock?
The 495's shoot great in both my 50 cal barrels. the .500's size do very well & load very easy.. (hawken caplock (factory 48 twist) , renegade flintlock 24 twist LRH) What rifle are you shooting?I have a no excuses 50 caliber sizing set to try out when I get some more free time.

I’m going to work on getting a larger grain load together for my 1-48 twist T/C Greyhawk. I also have some Hornady Great Plains Bullets but am hoping that I get good results with the No Excuses. It supports a veteran owned business and I will have a better choice of different grain bullets to choose from.The 495's shoot great in both my 50 cal barrels. the .500's size do very well & load very easy..

It's a honker of a slug !Wow that's a hunk of lead. The way I figure that's about 11 bullets a pound with a few grains left over!
In settings under signature reminds mr I have to make a couple of changes !Muzzlestuffer
