[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 955706, member: 25383"] my .450 has the ported barrel, and have not even considered a cast lead bullet. Plus the velocities are a little too high for cast bullets. Anyway, from past experience I've kind of learned that 1700 fps is about it for lead (Linotype and Lyman #2). Unless your using hand gun bullets at those velocities, I doubt you'll see a lot of bullet expansion. I use solid bullets in all my big bore rifles, but cast lead works well. Just never enjoyed the task of cleaning lead out of barrels much gary [/QUOTE]
