I’m hoping to get this rifle out to see how she does soon.
Seems like weather and opportunity are rarely coinciding lately.
I cast and patched some 450gr bullets I use in my Turner 500 No.2 that I expect will shoot well in this rifle.
Also have another 500 3” BPE that I need to get out but I think will need a lighter bullet to regulate.
It’s a double J.V. Needham with a way lazy twist - like one in sixty.
Don’t even know where to start with that one...




300gr. is about max. I think. You might be able to paper patch bullets meant for the .500 S&W Magnum or for other .50 cal. pistols and muzzleloaders - or cast.

I have a couple NOE aluminum moulds - they are the best made moulds I have ever owned, and I have had RCBS, Lyman, Ohaus, Saeko, NEi and now NOE. Super moulds.
