I'm enjoying this thread as it seems to validate some of my own observations regarding those awful 'twisted bbls.'

Probably should have said, "Welcome, Jim Irwin!" first. You'll find Joe Wood a long time believer/user of PB as well for safe loads in those awful twisted bbls.

I'm thinking that 'Longshot' may/can serve as the modern equiv. once someone gets around to developing/testing sufficient loads to publish them and the results will prove similar. Meantime, keep that PB dear. It works just fine, thank you.
