This issue arrived today & noticed a few things:
Another source of swaged paper patched bullets—
http://www.ontargetswaging.com/
Moulds & cast bullets (lubel/non-lubed) are also offered by Ballard rifles—
http://www.ballardrifles.com/
An interesting article by Dan Theodore “Torque, Twist & Bullet Weight”. The calibers tested were .40, .38, .35, & .32
Another article shows that not all the buffalo hide hunters left the remainder of the cracass to rot on the plains.
Primer test article.
I’ve been a subscriber to this periodical for numerous years & ea. issue seems to get better….

Ray I got mine too and noticed there was alot of good stuff in it. Since it only comes out every three months I read a little at a time so I can look forward to the other articles. Silly I know but it works for me. I was glad to see the feature on the buffalo hunters continued again since the last edition didn't have it. Cool cover photo too.
