One of our club members owns a fabric shop and cuts us hundreds of patches from his offcuts on a badge making press. The best ones which I use now are some fancy pink cotton which he sells in his shop for 40 quid a metre. Lube is watered down Kranks BP solvent (the old one) and 10 grains of semolina on top of the powder. It gives a lovely sharp crack and very consistent accuracy. My last comp score was 96 with 6 bulls. Wish I could do that every day! I use about 18gns of kranks fine in my 44 Charles Moore so your load does seem a bit hefty for a 36.

See if you can scrounge some Swiss #1 to try. It's about 60 quid a kilo which is twice the price of Kranks but a far better powder in my opinion, but with half the charge you are currently using it would work out the same price. I use Kranks in all my larger calibres and revolver but love the Swiss in the 36. I was using a lee .350 ball but moved onto a Jeff Tanner .354 which is very slow to cast and trim (I tumble the balls to finish them off) and this has worked very well for me. I find the 354 quite a tight fit with a ten thou patch so you must have fun with a 360 and 12 thou. Next time down I'll chrono my pistol and see what I'm getting.

I get good accuracy with 13g of Swiss, .350 Hornady ball and 10 thou patch.
not too bad till i get around 7-9 shots then it needs more thump ,yeah it be interesting to see chrono resultsI find the 354 quite a tight fit with a ten thou patch so you must have fun with a 360 and 12 thou. Next time down I'll chrono my pistol and see what I'm getting.
