[QUOTE="Old Rooster, post: 3041906, member: 108576"] There is a guy I have not met but folks I know trust him well and they tell me that used to shoot competition long range with old Sharps and custom Sharp look a like's at Big Timber Montana and owns many 45-70 rifles along with many custom rifles. He says accuracy in his rifles depend on something BrBa said,"Case Fill".He says he had some accuracy problems early and some old timers that they shot with bullets compressed,never loose.If the powder charge has accuracy potential,even if not compressed he would prime and load the case and then put corn meal in until he had a mildly compressed load and it always outshot the loose loaded rounds. Anyone ever heard of that before?B S or truth? [/QUOTE]
