Lyman #5 has Bizz loads in it - can't remember off hand if 572 is listed , but it might . Can save you some testing and eebie jeebies if they/it are !!

Here is an update on my 65mm Bismuth load test with 572.....

Ched 65mm hull
Ched primer
20.0 Win 572
SG16S wad
425 grains Bismuth No. 5
6 point crimp at +/- .050"

Shot only 5 because it is $1/shot and I wanted to see if it's worth further testing

Avg FPS 1261
Ex Sp 43
SD 14

All in all not a horrible load. Reasonably dirty, and faster than I really want. I may try it at 19 grains of powder. I was surprised I got a 30fps jump by switching 1oz of lead on a SG16, to 425 grains on a SG16S.....

Barnyard Drake,

Why can't Winchester 572 be used for Bismuth? It would be a nice fit for 1 oz. Bismuth loads.


Sorry. Haven't been on for a while.

No published loads and I'm not much for Wildcatting.

I'd rather be using one of them right now.
