I am hoping to get some revolver shooting in sometime during the next 2 days. Ambient air temps here in the Central Valley in Calif are to be in the 110 to 112 degree range! It's been a while since I shot BP in such high temps and I forget how it affects the stuff! If I remember correctlly pressures will be slightly higher though nothing dangerous.
Due to an oversight on my part, I will have to use Crisco on my .44's instead of wads. I just got to happy shooting the big .44's and used all my wads up! I much prefer wads to greases because it melts off so much with the first discharge! I don't want any chainfires!
BP has been a savior for me during this contrived ammo shortage! I have been able to keep shooting even though rimfire supplys are non exhistant and Centerfire has gotten so pricey!
It;s very nice to lesurely load and fire a cylinderfull while others can't even visit the club/Range! High ammo costs and unavailability have squashed activitys at my shooting club to dramatically low levels. Since the Club is an Assn. we all depend on revinue to eep the lights on and pay employee salaries and this slouch in attendance has HURT!
Thank goodness for BP!
