Have you spoken to Laser Cast? They claim no leading. This from their web site. "As always, your satisfaction GUARANTEED or you money back! "No leading"  I have been shooting their 255 grain SWC over 6.5 Titegroup with no problem. Perhaps you got a poor batch.

what do you do to remove the lead the easiest way? shooting 44 spc and 430 sized lead in a Uberti cattleman myself, i could run into the same problem... An apple a day keeps the doctor away... If you can strike me! | |||

Check the throat dia. of each cylinder. The bullets should be sized for the throats. Your bbl. may be really rough, is the rev. new? Try shooting a couple hundred jacketed from a clean bore then try the lead, but check those cyl. throats. LIFE IS NOT A SPECTATOR'S SPORT! | |||

wtman, Go to your favorite supermarket and look for soapless Cu scouring pads: I use "Chore Boy." Cut open the pad, wrap it around your bore brush so that it's a tight fit in the bbl. and scrub the Pb out. Note: You should use a muzzle protector when doing this. Also, "Chore Boy" can be used wet or dry. If wet, try a little Kroil or WD-40, but not a Cu solvent. Try it, you'll like it! | |||

which means? 1. a sized bullet will pass the cylinder with ease? 2. a sized bullet will pass the cylinder with weak resistance (hand feed) 3. a sized bullet will pass the cylinder with hard resistance (hand feed) i guess #4 is not adviseble... (not able to push sized bullet through the cylinder at all... i am a rifleman, but this revolver shooting and reloading is great fun! all new hobbies are fun but this one is nr 1...

I have been using the Chore Boy copper pads for some time now just as you describe and they work well.....
