bloomin onions, fried cheese sticks and french fries, including sweet potato fries all sell really well. The flashy signage helps, too. I bet this guy makes a killing.

Well, Hobie had mentioned in another post that it's really important to get all of the copper fouling out before you shoot lead, as lead sticks to copper better than it does to nickel steel.

I don't agree with Moheckan's post at all. Defending your home in an act of self-defense, (and all that statement LEGALLY implies,) is not the same as premeditated murder. -It's just not, nor is it viewed as such by courts. It doesn't matter where you get ammo from, so long as you are a:) threatened...

Either way sculbert1, I will enjoy those bullets. I'll try them over 11.5gr of 2400, and if that leads my barrel, then I'll have to drop it down to non-leading levels.

158gr LSWCHP loads for .357mag with 2400 and Lilgun
Handloaders reloading data says 13.8gr of 2400 is the starting load but shows fps at 1290.
These are cold swaged, prelubed Magnus bullets I got in trade. Is 1290fps ok or will I get fouling?
Also, the loads for Lilgun started at 17.0 and had around 1500fps... Will this foul in my 6.5in Ruger BH?
