Hello, I am having trouble finding slugs for a .257 Roberts. I want cast lead, just to load some plinking ammo. I found some .25-20 boolits, but they are advertised as .259 diameter. Is this permissible to use in a .257 Bob? From my VERY limited experience with cast lead loading, they are supposed to be a thousandth larger than jacketed projectiles. Is two thousandths going to be an issue, or am I overthinking this?
My other option is to use a different gun to plink with, but what fun is that? Thanks for the help.
