Because of the greater than .005 reduction huh. Well I'm sure that RickN said drawing was the way it needed to be done not swaging. It sounds like Jim is reducing .20 cals for his new tipped bullets. Any other ideas?? I like all that I have bought from Calhoon but really do want to go to molly coating instead of the "quick silver". I'm using his suggested load of AA2200 and after XX number of rounds down a clean barrel I get this cakey star blast around the muzzle. It made me think that if it's like that at the muzzle what is it like in the bore. Then once and only once I fired a cold bore shot at paper with this "cakey" barrel and the first shot was about half an inch high from the next 4. This was done at 80 yards via my range finder. What I am thinking is that the restriction of the quick silver build up increased the pressure and there for increased the velocity? Maybe if I used the molly it wouldn't do that and it would be easier to clean the barrel???
