yep, conical length can not exceed twice the bore diameter. 50cal = 1"

Well dang, if that just ain't anal as all get out. What's the rationale behind that line of thinking?

The very best conical on earth is the one I cast. It is 525 grains of lead I got from a church. I call it holy lead!!! I have never measured the length, but it might be a bit long for CO.I have used it in CO, but I never got caught. Tom.
