I shoot a .54 Lyman GPR. I cast my own .530 RB and use red striped pillow ticking. I use olive oil as a lube.
I would use a thicker patch but anything thicker is too difficult to load.
I've shot FF BP (80 gr), Pyrodex P (70 gr), Pyrodex RS (80 gr) and still have shredded patches. I'm at a loss.
I'm thinking that maybe a heavier lube might help? I have an endless supply of beef tallow, anyone ever use it for a patch lube?
Any suggestion would be appreciated?
