To add a couple more questions to the above...
Can you outline the media into which you want your bullets shot?
I have seen in print a couple different materials stated to be used by Linebaugh so I am not sure what you intend to use.
Also, why a 700 grain bullet? Is there something lacking in a lighter-weight bullet, or some particular performance advantage you foresee with the 700 over say a 500-600 grain weight?
Thanks.
Media - Wet newspaper/magazines
Why - I believe in heavier bullets at lower velocities. I favor velocities of 1500 - 1600 fps. The old 4 and 8 bores did very well at stopping the Big Five.
