Thread: .45-70 "Artillery" 500gr load testing

Love the rifle, I've got the capping breech loader version and probably should have gone cartridge anyhow. With the powder compression die you will be breaking some of the grains, up you could try 3f if you can get it that would give enough room for a grease wad. You have a wad cutter so if you can get felt it will cut that. I make mine from old pairs of shearing moccasins they're partly greased already but I still float then in melted lard, hook them out and let them harden.
