May have to experiment more with that later on.<br /><br />I think the case walls would be too thick to make a check. Though I need to measure one to see just how thick they are.Firehandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04562365951182027709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515829.post-8301907964891918672013-04-22T21:01:42.788-07:002013-04-22T21:01:42.788-07:00Would using a brass 9mm case to cut discs for a .3...Would using a brass 9mm case to cut discs for a .357 work?<br />ori<br /> markshere2noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515829.post-77962261953257378402013-04-22T18:05:07.591-07:002013-04-22T18:05:07.591-07:00If your discs are burning, try wax or vaseline on ...If your discs are burning, try wax or vaseline on the powder side. I have heard (but never tried) hairspray works too. <br /><br />For real fun, try paper patching cast bullets. Especially in rifles. <br /><br /><br /><br />You DO have to size them after patching and lubing. <br /><br />But they work as well as a copper jacket. <br /><br />B https://www.blogger.com/profile/10586046436233366155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515829.post-39445414094628683582013-04-22T14:50:04.568-07:002013-04-22T14:50:04.568-07:00For most practice, I do too, for the same reasons....For most practice, I do too, for the same reasons. I go to the reading glasses when I want to test a load or just see how tight I can shoot slowfire.Firehandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04562365951182027709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515829.post-56965544908420113712013-04-22T14:43:32.372-07:002013-04-22T14:43:32.372-07:00I've used my reading glasses before to get bet...I've used my reading glasses before to get better groups, but stopped doing it. I decided that if and when I needed my firearm, the odds were much higher that I would be wearing my distance lenses, so I would rather be well-practiced with them.tkdkerrynoreply@blogger.com
