Nice betI was able to get 3, .431" balls into .44 magnum loads by grinding a flat on them where they touched.
IIRC they had a spread of @ 6 to 9 inches at 10 yards.
They weren't really useful for anything, but I did use 'em once in a wager with my son about who could get more hits on a silhouette target in 5 seconds, him with his P-220 or me with my M-29.
I won!
A "project" for people with to much time on their hands or "cabin fever"I have never been tempted to do this. What would the loads be good for that a accurate shot with a real bullet would not do as well?
So you think two hits in the the chest with a pair of .45 round balls will bounce off a man or deer because the people who loaded it weren't being serious and were just bored?A "project" for people with to much time on their hands or "cabin fever"
IDK, don't own a chronograph. It had a supersonic crack, so I'm guessing it was north of 1050 fps.What kinda velocity do you get?

OMG, I had no idea a commercial outfit made this ammo, let alone it be Remington. I mean, this must have been back when Remington actually tried to do something innovative and not just stand on name recognition because it was bought by an investment firm.I thought this was kind of interesting. Especially the "For law enforcement use only" statement on the box.
They can't be all that old, the box has a UPC.
