Excellent-


Thanks for the hint there.
This particular martini has charmed me and I want to get it shooting.
I have a few projects brewing in the shop these past few weeks, I just put the finishing touches on my steel/brass cartridges for the 16b double rifle tonight. Likely won't get out to shoot it till thursday or friday. While out at the ranch I'll grab the martini and have it home here for slugging and casting.

My dad and his uncle did quite well with a spitzer mould that I have here running gas checks in the '03. It throws .308 bullets. I'll make a die for the lubrisizer to whatever dia. is needed to kick out what the martini seems to want and go from there.
I have a few different types of paper around here that might work, dress patterns, tracing paper, vellum...
I figure something's bound to elegantly fall in line as patch material once I know the skinny on the barrel.
