Hi Mike, the "Big Mike" note is absolutely correct.  Pond Froth, the high altitude of our area, the thin air from living at 4000 feet combine to produce the effects he has noted.  Having not sipped the Froth for a few days my few remaining brain cells remembered a time when a fuzzy headed friend of mine wearing a strange head band convinced me I should try shooting something called a BIB.  I was sure he would not be kidding me and I was fairly sure that whatever it was it would be a good thing.  Perhaps it was an attachment that hooked to the CLUB and prevented the Pond Froth and slobbers from landing on my shirt while I was shooting.  Imagine my surprise when I found out it was actually a bullet.  I was also surprised to find out that instead of being round it was actuall oblong in diameter.  They work very well Mike but it is really difficult to produce sizing and seating dies and barrel throat that conforms to the bullet shape.  It is only the abundant use of Pond Froth that makes this operation possible.  The Black Juice is used after shooting to remove the excess copper build up from the bore where the oblong portion actually makes contact.  Life great when shooting the full size 308 Mike.  When you win you are given great accolades cause you took a "has been" and kicked butt, when you do not win everyone blames it on the size of the case so you still did great.  Great life HUH??????????????????? ;^)  Larry
