[QUOTE="hubel458, post: 780012, member: 6474"] Here is picture of the 12ga short brass RMC cases being used in the 1887 WIN shown above. They are 2 5/8" long cases and we get 600gr over 1900. He had work done on action to get it to feed these and 3" roll crimped plastic. Brass loaded about same length as 3' plastic crimped little long. [IMG]http://www.gunownerstv.com/12shortbrass.jpg[/IMG] Next pic are Lyman slugs cast for thin 12ga wad, used in thickwall 10ga VP100 wads. These Lymans I got are on large size and fit VP100 fairly well. Makes easy, lighter, superfast load in 10ga. [IMG]http://www.gunownerstv.com/10lyman.jpg[/IMG] Next; further idea with Longbow's tube/roundball slug shown above. Use tube hot glued to ball with screw in the back and use it in a 10ga VP100 wadcup. These type slugs little more accurate used in wads as opposed to fullbore. [IMG]http://www.gunownerstv.com/10gatube.jpg[/IMG] Next shows picture of a long 585 bullets, about 1600gr in our 585HE cases. Got the idea from Bret In Minn that could setup 585HE guns with super long throat and load down to subsonic speeds to make the 585HE Whisper.....And regular bullet loads would still fire in the same guns......And at subsonic 1050fps it would have about 4000 ft lbs, about twice what the peashooter whisper cases have. And my case could get a 2400 gr long bullet to same subsonic speed for 6000 ft lbs. And one that long would have proportions like the newer tank cannon, smooth barrel saboted darts, that it could be possibly be done, using long 2400gr in smooth barrel. Neat ideas from guys interested in whisper type loads. [IMG]http://www.gunownerstv.com/585whisper.jpg[/IMG] Last is picture of FBW in our 585HE with handgrip stock and light barrel for lightweight carrying. Grip is weighted, gun is 6lbs. Barrel is 28". I'm not a fan of light barrels. 650gr at 2500 is max of what I can hold onto shooting from the hip Moderate load .Little info about my 585 loads, like in the break actions and the Mossy in post above. I load about 85% max velocities, but to get 85% we only need 2/3 the peak pressure, like 40,000 psi instead of 65,000...Ed [IMG]http://www.gunownerstv.com/585tact.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
