I took the plunge with a 7.5” freedom arms back in the 90s, I tried the 300 grain and 260 grain factory loads to start out. It took me a long time to get through that 50 r d box of 260 grain loads,...
There's a guy on Youtube that does all sorts of Buckshot loading videos, They are geared more toward hunting type loads. I'm currently loading one in particular and it seems to work fine in my...

Congratulations on that mountain gun, I had one way back when they were new and wished I’d kept it.
Why not just shoot them?
Here’s a pic of the PGU-12B ammo and my model 15. The bullet is indeed .355. Looks to me like they took they m41 ball bullet and seated deeper and crimped the case. I wonder if they even changed the...
I have some PGU-12B ammo and will try to post a pick later. I’ve never pulled a bullet but suspected they were loaded with a 38 super FMJBT bullet.
I would use the FCD unless you are shooting...
