Yeah, the Trapdoor level loads...

I got some heavy cast bullets (I prefer the 300 gr. actually - they shoot flatter). I had to use a gram scale to weigh them, but they were given to me, 516 gr. lubed and checked. Trail Boss is a good light load (subsonic) but I need a bit hotter powder to get it to real buffalo gun speed (1100-1200 fps).

Black powder is a bit complex. Drop tubes, softer lube, and grease cookies. Maybe a some later.

I did a little horse trading today at the LGS - WB, 2021-10-07, 17:58
