I was wondering if finding the lands in a lever gun would be:
1- Useful
2- Possible.
In various reloading manuals, there's a myriad of coal. Lyman, for example, show longer coal for lead bullets.
Would it worth the effort to try different coal, keeping in mind that bullets longer than 1.610" might not chamber or feed properly in a lever action.
If was to try to find lands, shoud i proceed the same way as in a rifle? Slightly seat the bullet, insert the dummy round in the chamber and closed the lever action?
What are your experience and what do you think?
Have a great day folks.
