Addressing pure-lead Concals

Never got it to shoot any where nearly as accurately as a round ball rifle.
This is often very true and another example of how a PRB, is very forgiving. However, you are still faced with your twist. For the performance you want, you pretty much have to look at Conicals or Sabots. Would add that I do not shoot sabots, out of a Traditional; Just me. You can still shoot PRBs with your twist on the range but you are going to have to work up a "fun" shot-string and this will take a little time and compromise. ....

I have run and shot Maxi-Ball balls, Maxi-hunters, Buffalo bore, REAL and Hornady Great-Plaines Hunters. Of these, the Hornadys and Buffalo-Bore, have provided very good performance. Long ago, I gave up on the REALs as they don't like working with me.

Congratulations on you Pedersoli and;
Be Safe !!!
