.44 LePage

[tim56]

Just been and picked up a .44 LePage from a local (ISH) RFD. I had one a few years ago and used 16grns of Swiss with a .010" patch
soaked in wonderlube with a .435 ball. Anyone got any advice on what they are using.?? Tim

I used to shoot this calibre with 15gr of Swiss - so you are about right. Everything else is good except I used spit, being a poor ex-squaddie unable to afford Wonderlube here in UK, where it is priced like unicorn drool.

I use a 435 ball (lee mould) with a 14thou patch in my Charles Moore. I soak the patches in extra virgin olive oil as we were better fed in the air force.

And we lived indoors and sent our officers off to fight.

Yes, I know.

Of my thirty-three years in the Army, I spent twenty-six of them with the Royal Air Force.

'nuff said.
