Contender--- I do precisely the same thing with my old worn out wire brushes and carefully disassembled copper Chore Boys to remove leading from my Gold Cup, which shoots 30 LRN's for every FMJ.

But if you're practicing a tad bit with your romp'em stomp'em loads, you'll want to be able to shoot without re-cleaning every cylinder-full. It just seems like this would be a sensible hunting round, and that others might be interested in it. One of the biggest concerns is controlled expansion and penetration. This would well-address both.

For what it's worth, this year's handgun hunting will most certainly be done with Keith-style hard-cast LSWC.
