Can bullets be bumped up to a larger diameter? I bought some 50 caliber hornady bullets .500 that I thought I could use in my Remington 700 ml but the bullets are slowly sliding down the barrel. No need to push them down?

Not sure what bullet but it might be possible to knurl them with a couple files. Just a shot in the dark idea.

Not sure how to do that but I might try powder coating them with 2 or 3 coats and see if they will tighten up. I am sure they will bump up with a good charge of t7. Thanks for your reply. |

Use the files, much easier than powder coating them.

Use the files, much easier than powder coating them. I did use the files today and it worked perfectly.could hardly believe it. I hope they group well because they are an awesome bullet and available anywhere here were I live. Thanks again for that info. |

Good luck, ive tried the Hornady 300gr 50cals made for 500S&W sabotless and they are a bear to obturate. Needs a pretty hot load to get them to fatten up when fired.

I (think) Fury makes a 50cal thinner jacketed bonded Knurled bullet about .503 dia. He will make you whatever you want within reason.

Yeah I try some that were 501 diameter and 502, but I was also trying to figure out a powder combination for this gun at the same time so everything I did faught me. I did buy some sample packs so at least he offers though so that you don't have to buy a bunch of unusable bullets
