Fellas, I need your help, badly. I purchased a brand new Pedersoli Springfield Rifle Musket. Dixie recommends a 575 minnie. I have a Lyman 575213 mould. I cast some minies and headed to the range. I lubed the grooves with "old zip", a combination of mutton tallow and beeswax. I seated the rounds on 60 grains of schuetzen 2fg. It was terrible. The rounds tumble down range and strike the paper sideways, if they hit the target at all. I tried some Lyman 577s, but they do not even fit down the bore. What can I do? If I can't get this thing to shoot, I've got an expensive wall hanger.
