Holland Paradox
After several years, I motivated yesterday and cast 25 slugs for my Paradox. I just finished making them this am. I'm looking forward to putting a few through our local pigs this year Big Grin

What load are you looking at using?

Just because they say you are paranoid doesn't mean they are not out to get you.

I use the NEI Paradox mold that casts a 786gr solid out of 20-1 alloy. I size the slug to .735 with a push through die.

I use the AA hull with a Winchester wad with the petals removed and two 1/8 felt wads over 23.5grs of Unique.

I regulates very well in my gun.

I can say that I have fired 470 Evans Paradox Gun, with his reloads.
It is scary accurate. And a very nice handling gun as well.

I'd love a Paradox someday. Am looking at one now and if it's available after I return home in mid October it may be mine.

I'M JEALOUS !
paradox's and exploras are just the neatest fire arms around.


If you own a gun and you are not a member of the NRA and other pro 2nd amendment organizations then YOU are part of the problem.

I'll be at a friends house in the Lower 48 in a few days and he has a WR Explora in 12 magnum. It is an absolute work of art!

A couple of years ago at DSC there was a Paradox circulating with the barrels bored out so that about 50% of the rifleing remained.
I cried.
