[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 1170877, member: 25383"] I certainly glad you made this post Sir! At one time I had a friend that would have bailed me out with these issues. He was known to be one of the very best black powder shooters in North America. I lost contact with Russ years back. He shot several Pedersoli's as well as Sharps and some ancient stuff. I do remember him telling that with the Pedersolis that fit of the bullet to the bore was extremely critical. Want to say .001" to .0015", but may have even been .002". Russ used very hard lead bullets from his own molds. Sized them with custom honed bushings. His bullet lube stunk like catfish bait! He also had a red colored lube he used for certain guns. gary [/QUOTE]
