Re: Trouble reloading for my chiappa rhino
Agreed on the TC's being better than the RNFP in the Marlin. I could only get some RNFP from my club shop recently but by upping the powder load they are shooting tighter groups. Again light loads at 25 yards or less and no signs of leading when cleaned.Daryll wrote: I found that the 158gn TC's (Truncated Cones) worked best... if I use the RNFP in my Marlin I may as well use a shotgun!
I see no signs of leading, on the (very) few times I've cleaned it, but I only shoot up to 25m, so light loads only.

I received my Lewis lead remover from Brownells, great. Get the instructions out, ok start with the forcing cone.
Well thats a good start. It doesn't reach because we cant have normal pistols, FFS our stupid laws !
Miffed is an understatment.
