DD,,,its ok about the questions,,,,,This is a learning mission and im all for knowing more.
I was loading .44Colt for my '72OT with National Bullet bullets. They are lubed, but honestly, I dont know what type of lube. Thats what I was concerned about.
The barrels have been slugged and alll the cylinder chambers etc, by my pistol smith buddy, so , size,weight,,is all good on the bulletes,,,just the lube issue is my major concern now.
I assume from what you say, your Big lube bullets are for blackpowder revolvers ? Might just have a customer here then.
IF the National Bullets arent good for BP, wont be a big loss,,I can use'm in my smokeless loads till they are depleted. I think im going to go BP all the way. Just seems ,,,more historic right,,,
Iv been a flintlock shooter for all my life,,but the patch ball is a different deal than a 'nude' ball in a revolver.
The lubed 'wad' ,,,is that an ox-yoke wool wad ? or a homemade deal ? Is it perfered in the cap and ball guns also?
Pards, I apprecaite it.....any learning is good learning.
