Guess I need my spell checker-- I meant "...experience with these cartridges"

Mike - Black Dawge ( www.stewartdawge.com/index.htm ) loaded some 40-65 for a friend of mine just getting into BPC silhouette. It shot well for him. He put it on paper after the match at 200M where it shot under 2 MOA with an inexperienced shooter. I understand they'll load about any BP caliber, but I don't know that they would have the exact bullet you may want to use. - Nick
