RELOAD WITH CONFIDENCE!
What’s Your TITAN Advantage?….WE RELOAD!

The Titan Crew would like to congratulate the Washington Nationals on their World Series Championship and thank them, the Houston Astros and ALL the other teams for an exciting October of baseball. So much for the notion of home field advantage, the road team won in all 7 games of the World Series. Unfortunately this trend did not start at the beginning of the playoffs as the Nationals knocked off my Brewers in the NL Wildcard Game in Washington. Oh well….next year will be fun. Okay, no more excuses, time to get the yard ready for winter.

INSIGHT OF THE MONTH:

Cast Bullet Leading

A clue to what is causing the leading is where the leading first begins to appear. If it appears near the chamber, chances are that bullet diameter or hardness are the cause.

A diameter too small and/or too hard an alloy will allow high pressure gas to leak past the bullet, which erodes the bullet and leaves leading near the chamber.

If the leading first appears on the leading edge of the rifling (if you imagine the bullet being pushed through the barrel, you will note that one edge of the rifling does most of the work of imparting a spin to the bullet. This is the edge you see when you look through the barrel from the breech end) the bullet might be too soft, and/or the velocity too high.
A good rule of thumb for maximum velocities when using liquid alox is 1400 feet per second for plain base bullets and 2200 feet per second when using gas check bullets. Bore conditions will require you increase or decrease this velocity slightly to prevent leading.

If the leading appears in the second half of the barrel, the bullet is running out of lube. You should see a star shaped pattern of lube accumulate on the muzzle. This is an indication that there is a little excess lube.
