This rifle is PICKY!
So I cleaned it (big mistake as usual, but I wanted to get the lead out). No big clumps, just some wash that came right out with a brush. Then I had 30 of those 452664 plain based bullets all lubed up and looking lonely on the sizing bench, so I switched back to Universal, this time at 6.9 grains, and gave them a go. You ever see a 20.5" 25-shot group? I did today. WOW. I thought it might just be the barrel getting its season back, but apparently it did that on the first shot (lowest of the group) and just flung them everywhere. I did 15 for the chronograph and let it cool, went back to the house for a few minutes to let ME cool, then went and shot another 10 for a group, which included the two highest hitting shots of the day, nearly made it off my 24" backer. For grins I saved the last for my revolver, which put three close and two way out to make about an 8" group offhand at 25 yards.
Being thoroughly flummoxed, I grabbed the box I loaded last night with the 310RF bullets, lubed with SL-68B-ish lube and loaded back at the first level of True Blue that I had tried first with that bullet and right off shot a 3.5" round group of ten. WTF says me. Oh, and with the B lube they gained 16 fps average. Still single-digit SD.
Tried the revolver again with the 310RF and got a 3" group at 25 off hand.
So this 310RF is a good bullet, all I can figure. I ended up making the nose too dang long by about .010", so unfortunately it's kind of back to the drawing board unless I file on the lifter or hollow-point the mould and use the pin to shorten the nose just a bit.
