I made some slugs today by drilling holes in a chunk of oak. I think I'll get a few useable ones.
Now I'm making a rod to do the smashing.
Using a 3/8 rod I heated up the end, gave it a few whacks with the hammer.
Now my question. What diameter would you make the flaired contact?
I'm measuring a browning "92" it's a 1978 with the funky rifling. I can put a .424 gauge in the muzzle. Is .015 enough clearance? .4 09 or should I make it smaller? I was going to use electrical tape raps as spacers on the rod. Maybe a gas check in front of it. Thanks. Mark
I know .424 is large my ruger sbh is .416, m29 is .417 and the contender is also .416.
