Does this bullet require resizing with the CVA Scout V2 TD 45-70 Conversion ?

Not very well IMO. I tired them with and without a wad.
Pittman bullets are the most accurate bullet I’ve tested in my CVA Scout.

I have had both but IMO Pittman Bullets are the GOLD STANDARD for these MUZZLELOADERS !

Want to try some Fury bullets too, which one was the most accurate up to 200 yard in the CVA ?

Jeff suggested I try the .453 265 STB’’s. I have them on hand but haven’t tried them out yet.

I NEVER could get the 2P’s to shoot out of my conversion either. I tried all sorts of combinations all with less than acceptable results. The ONLY “WAG” I had for a reason was maybe it was due to the 2P’s longer length and increased bearing surface needing a faster twist rate than the conversion allowed for? 🤔 Things changed drastically when I tried the Star Tip ‘MZ’, though. Here’s the BEST group I ever got out of my conversion for 3 shots at 174 yards with the Star Tip ‘MZ’ and a .060 wool wad. It measured .825” CTC. It routinely held 1 minute or better which was just fine for hunting.   |
