    Lilgun DOES NOT make your cases stick, EXCESS PRESSURE does!

    Try using 13 grains of black powder a lubed cardboard wad and a 22 20
    Grain gamo lead ball no case extraction sounds like a Winchester 300
    Mag lots of smoke and a ball travelling at 4800 fps

    Asked entirely on the contents of this post, all I can surmise is you're an idiot!

    You haven’t been asked who cares what you think
    You have to shoot over other peoples land because you own nothing

    Oh contraire, I have been asked just not by you....

    As for shooting over other people's land, what on earth does that have to do with anything? (Rhetorical question)

    Most feral people that don’t own any land call people
    Idiots when they have never met them so it’s very relevant
    You have also never tried the round or the that bullet weight or even
    Have access to a chrono unless someone lends you one on the lent land you shoot on

    Oh this is fun!

    You clearly have no proper grasp of the English language or the definition of feral...

    The idiot comment was, by my own admission, based purely on that one post.

    I find the choice of a lead ball over even a cast bullet idiotic in terms of accuracy for shooting live quarry.

    I find the idea that 13 gr of black powder can push a 20 gr projectile plus a cardboard wad to 4800 fps safely, if at all, idiotic.

    I find people posting load data that is a million miles from published or commonly accepted load data with no way of knowing if that is way over pressure, though the stated velocity would certainly suggest so, idiotic. I also find it hugely inappropriate and irresponsible when they suggest other people try said data.

    No, you're right I don't own a chrono, I don't need one as I know accuracy kills and wins comp's not speed - knowing speed is useful for working drops or for long distance, not for shooting pigeons or rats.....sure I could certainly buy one should I choose to do so,but as I have access to a club chrono and several mates with one I've never bothered.

    As for 'borrowing land' yes I guess I do but then the landowners are borrowing my ability to control wildlife in return, so works both ways. I certainly feel pretty happy with what I've achieved so far in life, so owning land, or not, really isn't a biggy....

    But I doubt it's very accurate

    Your cases are sticking because the loads you're using are deforming them, , unless you're trying for a Darwin award, use a lighter load.
