Vic,
Oh, I thought it was me since I seem to be the only one that doesn't like to use blackpowder.

Sir, is the 200gr paper patched as well or "nekkid"?


Edited to add: Nice shooting by the way!

Hey Hoot, it is a grease groove bullet, an Accurate Molds 365196B cast of 25-1 lead/tin. I want to try paper patching but have yet to flog myself to it. And thank you, even a blind hog finds an acorn once in a while!

Hello Sharps4590,
Could you help mé please. I got single shot Sauer Tell model V from 1900,in 9,3x57r/360 E, it is True 9,3mm.366 bore with express (Henry?) rifling (7 grooves, lands) with barrel long 62,5cm =cca 24.60 inch, it Will do one full turn in the whole barrel, so it has a twist 1:24 1/2? The caliber was black powder as well as a smokeless. With bullets range from 124gr 155gr - 190gr,215grn up to 227gr. What is the Best suited bullet and velocity for this rifling.
Thank you very much. Martin

Just have a question. How is a barrel liner put into a centerfire rifle? My research tells me that rimfire rifles are lined using epoxy but I somehow remember that epoxy is not used with heavier chamberings. Thank you.

They are glued too.

9372,my Husqvarna 9.3x57R(360) rifles are also a slow twist and do well with a 175 grain bullet and a 196 grain bullet (both from Accurate molds).
