Alpo Posted February 23 Posted February 23 I don't mean for the game - jacketed is not allowed in the game. I mean period. For any reason. Just curious how it worked. I have a 32 Smith & Wesson pocket pistol. I have some Pyrodex P. And I have some Berries bullets made for a 32 automatic. Seems like as seldom as I would wish to shoot it that would work. Obviously a jacketed bullet would not be able to carry bullet lube which would prevent the secondary job of keeping the fouling soft. Quote
Blackwater 53393 Posted February 23 Posted February 23 Load the bullet over a lubed wad! Use an over powder card on top of your powder charge then a fiber wad soaked in an appropriate Black Powder lube and seat and crimp your bullet. Be certain that the bullet diameter is correct for your barrel bore!! 2 Quote

If you shoot Pyrodex in that pocket pistol you will spend hours COMPLETELY disassembling and cleaning all that corrosive residue out of it. 3 1 Quote

I figured that if he spends as much time as it seems like he does on the Wire and in the Saloon that he’d know about that flammable rust/corrosion producer!! 🤨 3 Quote
