OP-You live in Aridzona-Look hard at DGL, as SPG was not created for the hot temps. of the desert.
All I use is DGL.

Lot of guys shooting the so called money bullet in one or the other or it's renditions,with good success. I believe Buffalo arms sells the molds for it or you can have Steve Brooks make you a fine mold of what ever you desire. He would be a good person to talk to about bullets for the specific application your new rifle will be used for. I have a couple of his molds and they are first rate.

I'd be happy to help. Casting, loading etc. Jim Jones range is nice and it's a little cooler up here than Phx. Lol

I think you're right Gary. I have to keep my ammo in an ice chest or risk spontaneous combustion on the bench.

Re: Soon to be Sharps owner
My rifle has finally arrived and I'm impressed. The wood to metal fit and all around feeling in the hand of this fine piece of working art is perfect. It's time to get busy and learn how to shoot her. Im ready Dennis!
