Greg, here's a comment you made on the lapping rod thread:
"You showed me one of the coolest things ever awhile back. "Click". I did not know that could be done, and it sticks in my mind."
What I showed you is one of my "dirty little secrets" that allowed me to know if I've produced a perfect taper lapped bore...
If the bore does not seal the "pusher' slug for 100% of the bore, the compressed air will drain off and the driven slug will not produce any velocity....or it may not even exit the muzzle...
Greg, wouldn't a video of me performing my "dirty little secret" on that fine Lilja that's on your Suhl be awesome!
Your LBK and pistol fool friend, Bill Calfee
