Everyone, Have searched the threads here extensively and wanted to confirm prior to placing order. Looking for a solid to use in my c 1925 Geyger sxs 9.3x74R; as I understand it, the North Fork cupped solid should be a good bet. It is monolithic in construction, but has proper driving bands. Just to verify my bore dimensions, I will take a Cerrosafe cast before ordering. . . I haven't called NF yet, but does anyone know if they sell in quantities less than 50? Will be attempting to regulate a load w/ these and if it doesn't work out will have a surplus (at $2/bullet). Thanks, Bill | ||

Bill, The general consensus is that the NF bullet will work fine in a double due to the banded design. I would think you should be fine. I have used them in my 9.3 Chapuis and my Searcy 470’s with no trouble. They are a great bullet. At one time Mike (the original owner) would sell smaller packs for load development. Not sure if the new owners still do however I would bet they will be willing to work with you on your request. I expect if you were to buy a box and find they did not work, someone(like Me) would buy your leftovers. You can also use Woodleigh solids. They work fine and will not harm your double. Good luck! ****************************************************************** R.

Ditto what Rosco said! If you find they do not regulate well in your rifle, I too would be willing to buy what you have left! ....Mac >>>===(x)===> MacD37, ...and DUGABOY1 DRSS Charter member "If I die today, I've had a life well spent, for I've been to see the Elephant, and smelled the smoke of Africa!"~ME 1982 Hands of Old Elmer Keith  | |||

Great-exactly the news I was looking for. I'll give NF a call later today to see if I can get a smaller batch; if not, and they don't work, will pass them on to someone here. Now to find primers and powder. . . fun times we're in for reloading. Cheers, Bill | |||
