when comparing smokeless with black powder. I hear people say this or that powder is cleaner. You couldn't prove it by me. You're burning nitrocellulose. It's gonna leave some ash behind.

I have heard other complain about unburned powder in the barrel with 2400. Seat and crimp properly and use enough to get the pressures up a bit most always takes care of that sort of thing.

The only thing I use Magnum Pistol primers in is the 30-30 levergun which has a weak hammerfall. It needs a primer that will light off easily, especially with Leverevolution powder and Speer 130 gr. Hot Cor bullet.
