    350gr and Beowulf

    I am trying to use 350XTP pills in my Beowulf brass, but the cannelure sits so far high, it cannot be crimped. If I lower the bullet into the case anymore, it will be really short for the magazine. Is it okay to leave it uncrimped?

    My guess (and it is only a guess) is that if you don't crimp the round won't chamber. The first batch of my .50 reloads I listened to AA advice to not overcrimp; net result was that I didn't crimp enough and the rounds would not chamber. This also happened on factory ammo a while back. I now check all my rounds with a gauge.

          Have you guys had any luck finding Lil' Gun?
          I have RL7 now for my 400G Sierra FP and IMR 4227 for the 300g Speers.
          Never found Lil' Gun in stock in 18 months of searching. Starting to think it's a myth...

            Lil gun was available the last 3 weeks from at least 4 or 5 different online retailers. They had 1 4 and 8 lbs available at recobs. It also came back in stock for 3 days the 1 lb and 4 lbers. There should still be some stock hitting some retailers still like bass pro if you check when it comes in stock. My distributor called me asking if I wanted any and since I dont have a huge demand for them i did not bother.
