In the cartridge I load I will drop the charge compress the charge place a card board wad on the compressed charge then the grease cookie next another card board wad then seat the bullet making sure no air space is allowed inside the cartridge. ( like rolling pie dough) Then use a punch the dia. long by 1in.a piece of broom handle works fine and roll the mixture out flat the thickness of the popsicle sticks. apart on the paper next take a wad of the lube place it between the sticks and cover with a second sheet of wax paper use a large dowel rod about 1ft. Take a sheet of wax paper place it on a flat surface place 2 popsicle sticks about 2in. I use a mixture of bees wax and olive oil, mixture is combined to allow a dough like texture. I have placed in the top 3 in quite a few matches with a dry PP bullet, including setting a new world record at 900 yards.įor my sharps ( it is breech loader metallic case) please do not hang me out to dry. I work with a rifle/load until I can shoot 1" or sub 1" groups at 100 yards. If they dont group at 100 yards it wont get any better at 1,000. Powder as you know can make a difference in your accuracy as well.Īccuracy? I always work up a load at 100 yards. Like I said I shoot dry, no lube on bullet. Lube will certainly be a variable as well, might help or might not. I have shot quite a few PP bullets through English Sporting rifles similar to your Gibbs.Ī lot of the accuracy with a PP bullet will be dependent on the paper, wad, the bullet, alloy of the bullet and the bullet size. If he sees this I am sure he will jump in. Brent is somewhat famous on the internet for PP bullets. My buddy Brent who sometimes looks in on this forum got me started with PP for target shooting has done quite a bit experimenting with PP over the year.
