I don't want to cast at the moment and having read all the advice here and elsewhere found I couldn't buy a bullet with a hardness and fit I was happy with.

Paper patching does seem to enable me to make the most of the softest commercially available bullets and get a good fit

Paper patching? That's a new topic for me to go read about, thank you!
