40 Cal.
Hello all. I have been using .015 cotton patches and noticed just a slight burning and a few very small holes in them after firing my 50 cal.(.490 ball) 1 in 72 twist barrel (using 70 gr. ffg). I thought I might go to a .018 thickness denim and noticed that there was no obvious burn but a 1/2 inch round hole in the center of the patch. I am wondering what this is telling me???.............Chawbeef
