My patches are pillow ticking, look just like the one on the right except there is a hole where the ball sits in the middle.

Patches were not pre-lubed, shot a ton of rounds on Friday with varying patches, and thicknesses. Never really got it to settle down. All of the pillow ticking patches I recovered had a round spot missing out of the middle the size of the bore. One patch from a 60 grain load landed on the...

I never thought of trying the stuff in the can instead of the horn.......hmm might have to try that. Ryan

Yeah, it is 1/48 and I am using 60grs by volume. I will try a littel steel wool (0000) in the bore and give it another shot (pardon the pun) but I keep it very clean. The first patch was like new and the last three were BLACK, just can't figure it out. Thanks Ryan

After a little advice here last year I stuck with the bottle of lube I had (CVA Patch Lube about 10 yrs old) and bought me some pillow ticking. I can't remember off hand now weather it was .015 or .018. Last year I had my Bobcat shooting good at 50 yards (around 1.5"). This year I pull it...

I just got done washing my pillow ticking and I am pretty excited about trying it out, after reading a few threads about reading patches it is now clear to me that any of the patches I have tried in the past have been too thin. I will start with the CVA stuff for now and report back. Thanks Ryan

I have a bottle of this that I bought 10 years ago when I bought my Bobcat. Up till now I have used the 385 Great Plains. I now want to get down to using a PRB for hunting. I am going to get some pillow ticking today and have a pile of .490 RB's. Will this Bore conditioner/patch lube be...

That's what I will do in the future, but between now and Friday there just is not time. Ryan

I think I need to work more with my patches with the round balls. I say every year that I am going to but I just never get around to it. I really like the Bobcat and I want more than ever to start using PRB's instead of the Hornady's. Thanks Ryan

Will this be enough out to say 100 yards max? I have yet to get my CVA Bobcat to really work well with a PRB and out of frustration a few years ago I gave the Hornady GP Bullets a whirl. At the time I used the listed load that came with the bullets of 90Gr of RS. This load shot great and it...
