    Fark! Nobody should be allowed a more than 62 grain projectile ... and that paper wrap will prevent rifling marks for forensic evaluation!

    Dressmakers pattern paper, wetted and wrapped around projectile and left to dry. Paper shrinks onto projectile as it drys, then tail is cut off. Means a tight fit in mouth of shell and no crimp. In theory lead doesn't touch the bore and paper comes off on exiting the barrel.

    Is there a delay from when you pull the trigger to when the powder ignites?

    Maca that must kick like a mule on steroids.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
