GregJ Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 For my Bayou 200gr SWC, I had always belled just enough to get the bullet started. Did this with Precision bullets as well. But thought a little more bell might help keep the coating intact more and maybe help to reduce leading more. But would the slight increase in belling reduce neck tension enough to cause the occassional bullet setback? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calvary45 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 I increased the belling ever so slightly for my 200SWC Bayous, I have never had an issue with setback of neck tension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
See_Archie_Shoot Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Are you seeing coating being shaved off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregJ Posted February 26, 2012 Author Share Posted February 26, 2012 Nope, no coating shaved off lately with the Bayous. Last year I was shooting Precisions, and would shave some off occassionally, so I opened up the belling a little bit more. I've just wondered if I might be a little too generous with the belling for the Bayous. Havent had but a very, very few setbacks with Bayous, which I'm expecting was probably due to thinner walled brass and not the belling. I'm belling with the Powder Funnels PTX on my LNL.
