First topic message reminder :

I posted this on the list side, so those of you that subscribe to both get it twice. Smile

Has anyone done any accuracy testing with the powder coating technology?  Nothing wrong with lead, but inquiring minds you know.

The only ones I see posting about it are the action types that really don't seem to care if their pistol is grouping 2" or less at 50 yards.  For their purposes, they're just fine with 3-4'' at 7 yards.  Not acceptable in our circles.

Rob,

Hang around after the Von bismarck in Feb.  I keep my Ransom at the range.  You're more than welcome to do some 50 yd testing after the match.

Had an opportunity to shoot some of igolat8's coated bullets. They leave the bore shiny clean and shoot darn good. Shortline was just a nice knot and 50 yds was on call. Used 4.2 gr 700x @ 50 and 3.2 gr @ 25. Going to shoot a match with some this weekend.

A couple months ago I did ransom rest testing with Bob Palermo's coated 200 gr SWC'S in my SA wad gun. They grouped 2.5 inches at 50 yards. The same bullets, uncoated group 1.5 inches.
