Not anymore! I’ll forgo the details…

A chemistry lesson; mercury can flow through the tiniest microscopic holes. Like through a paper plug covered tightly with plastic tape. It is also “magnetic” if charged and a devil to clean up scattered on the floor in head of pin sized balls.

But the 80 yr. old trick works just as well as it did in the 1940’s as I read.

My load of 6.0 gr. Unique in a .460 S&W case, card wad, fiber lube wad, and two 138 gr. lubed pure lead .451 round balls, it was sure. (Roman has a mess to clean up, they shot a 55 gal. Sand filled plastic drum in half?!)

Three shots at 20 yds. .451 balls upset to fill a .45 smooth bore, then slam into a very calculated throat to be rudely sized to the .430” rifled portion at the end. Only three shots, averaged 850 fps, second hole from bottom was three balls in the same hole! All six balls for three shots on target. Interesting stringing. Wait till the Bear is standing!!! Lol
