Selecting the accurate Minié ball load in 13 easy steps
-
Choose a mold that drops 0,001” bigger balls than the land to land diameter of your bore.
-
Size the bullet to 0,001” under your land to land diameter.
-
For slower twist like the 1:72” of the Springfield, 1:78” of the Enfield choose a shorter bullet between 450-530 grains, for faster twists liket the 1:48” of the Enfield 2 band rifle you can go for heavier ones as well.
-
Choose a mold that drops bullets with deep grease grooves so they can hold enough lubricant.
-
Choose a soft lubricant, apply it just before shooting.
-
Use only 100% pure lead for casting.
-
Weight each and every bullet. Keep the ones within +/- 0,5% weight deviation.
-
If the skirt is thick go for higher charges to help the bullet base expand.
-
Never exceed 75-80 grain loads as you can damage the skirt and loose accuracy.
-
Work up the powder load from 30 grains in 2 grain increments until you have a tight group.
-
Experiment with the powder type and lubricant, until your group does not open up until at least 20 shots are fired without wiping the bore.
-
Use the same load for both 50 m and 100 m shooting.
- Enjoy shooting one of the best blackpowder firearms ever!
