Patrick Sweeney Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 Most Supers run well with .355" bullets. You may (may, as in; only when accuracy sucks and all other variables have been fussed over) find better accuracy with .356" (if you can find them) or .357" bullets. Crimp only as much as experience shows you need, (generally .351" to .352") and make sure your belling stem diameter is small enough (.349" or so) And please turn off the caps button.

Patrick Sweeney Posted May 23, 2003 Share Posted May 23, 2003 Use what works. Caps are the online equivalent of shouting. If you're using all caps, the reader assumes he/she is being shouted at, that's all. In your Super, is this an Open gun, making Major, or a Minor gun for limited, Lim 10 or IDPA ESP? Powder can make a difference in accuracy, depening on what power level you're trying to make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
