Fired the 4bore with the 760 gr round ball, which is a hard rubber coated steel ball, thus the light weight compared to lead, using 100gr of Blue Dot under 300gr RE17, total 400gr. Hairy load, with 3500 fps, and 20,000 ft lbs. Used the turned 4bore cases, with shotgun primers, and with that light projectile case doesn't need sizing. This is good beginning bullet weight for early testing. I am gonna do 1200gr and 1600gr holding the speeds to give about same energy. I won't load heavier until I get another stock like one I have that is full width. Also those who want 3.5" 20ga brass cases, Rocky Mtn Cartridge is making them now.ED |
