I use a 570-grain Minie (Lyman 57730). Recoil is "noticeable"!! Good shooting!!

Jeffe: Please do post on your results. That's a nice slug.

Shot some of these monsters yesterday...

after several sight adjustments.... and accounting for me having an awkard day (up late loading and finishing 2 centerfire rifles) they shot at least as good as the warrens (which was the point) and left very light fouling!!

I asked for them to be a little softer, as there was some difficultly getting them started.

Jeffe: What alloy were those slugs cast from? Just curious, as I had a few slugs from Wayne that were included in a deal a couple of years ago for a Kodiak .72, and they were a little stiff. I wonder if the alloy was 1:20 or harder.
