Bullets are from an old Lee 240 gr mold with gas check.
5 shot groups with bullet sized to .430 were about 2 inches or so.
5 shot groups with bullets sized to .432 were the same except for one flyer in each group. One was about 5 inches higher, the other one didn’t hit the paper. Couldn’t figure out the flyers that wide of the group until I was talking to my son about it. Gas check is getting stripped off. Sizing to .432 isn’t crimping them on very hard and squeezing them into the rifling another 2 thousandths must be stripping them.
That’s the only thing I can thing of anyways. Anybody ever see this before?
