I wonder if it would be a way to easily 'slug' a barrel...?

There's a use for it that comes to my mind, I wonder how much the ballistic of the "flying trashcan" bullets that Barnes makes for the 45-70, would improve it the nose were filled?

If it were filled completely and consistantly they'd fly right. Wonder if it would "glue" a wound channel shut :shock: :D :?:

I'd actually thought this out before, but not with glue, but rather the stuff used to make fishing worms (the artificial ones :wink: ). You pour it in the bullet as a liquid, and cook it a 400 for a few min, and it becomes rubbery. Voiala! Rubber tipped levergun bullets. You'd just need a cone tipped mold to make them pointy.

I might have to get me a mold and make some glue bullets for my 357 Ruger revolver.

I wonder if my wife would let me use her hot glue gun? I think she has some colored glue sticks too. Can you imagine a red or blue Keith SWC?

Sounds like fun to me.
