Rust T Frizzen is dead on. I have a Parker-Hale mould that was shipped with my P-H '58 when it was new. It produces a .575 minie with a thick skirt. It weighs in at 560 grains. There is no way to load a .577 into a P-H without a big hammer. :nono:

Another question would be... What would the recomended powder charge be?

I used bore butter to lube the bullets. I rubbed a liberal amount around the rings. If there's a better way, I'm certianly iterested to learn it.Russ T Frizzen said:What lube were you using and how much did you use? This can make a huge difference in accuracy as can consistent quality of the Minies themselves. I have found that heavier Minies tend to be more accurate and use .577" 560 grain Minies myself.
