I got this idea as I was playing with chamber pressure numbers the other day for the .45acp - a cartridge I reload.
With increased chamber pressures, if there is sufficient powder, there is usually increased efficiency of the cartridge.
That led me to thinking, what would happen if I were to add a dab of superglue to the area where the bullet enters the cartridge of a .22 Long Rifle?
Probably risking a head blowout so I've not tried it.
I don't recommend you try it either.
Probably just a matter of time before I do try it. Probably right after I get a chronograph.
Just curious as to what ya'll might have to say about this practice. Has anyone ever done it? If not, have you heard of anything similar being done?
