I had to have a second Jameson before the picture was right side up !

[runnin n gunnin]

try some Basil Hayden bourbon.

Haven't seen it here in Arizona, but I will check with BEVMO !

PJM, IMR4064 is indeed a very good powder with that Hornady 150SP Interlock. Used it for YEARS in both 30-06's. Absolutley works.

Quick question for the great minds of the forum.

Some of you saw my post on my new CZ Hammer Coach Gun. I am going to load 12 gauge brass hulls.

My question is I have never used a Black Powder Substitute like Pryodex RS, Pyrodex select, or Tripple 7 (FFFg1 ?) and was considering doing so for this platform.

What are your thoughts folks?

You will get a multitude of answers. If you are having issues finding real black and can get the substitute I would use the triple 7. But ifin it was me there would be no substitute. Real black is what I always use.

Thanks BigAl

Well I loaded some more test rounds for the 38-55.
255 gr cast over 26.2, & 26.4 grs of Rel7, 5 of each.
Then 5 with some IMR 4198, hopefully try 'em out tomorrow.

Glad to see you are enjoying that 38-55

[Vaquero]

Thank ya sir I really am, should've had one a long time ago.
Just finished sizing and priming 212 45 colts.
Still need to deprime those last ones I got from you.

Thanks PJIM, the MagTek 12 gauge brass uses a large pistol primer instead of a traditional 209 primer. (Good thing because there are no 209s anywhere like every other primer). Pyrodex is looking good.

Just finished loading the last of some 195 gr swc's over 6.5 grs of Red dot.

Finished up more of those 158 gr. RNFP 357 Mag loads I tested with 6.0 of Power Pistol. Anyone try making a bushing for Small Pistol Primers to fit Large Pistol Primer brass?

[Vaquero]

Got another 165 pieces of 45 colt brass sized and primed last night.
May load some tonight and need to load some 38-55's, got a notification that my sight should be here Monday.

I reloaded some 45acp, 270, and 32 S&W long yesterday.

Anyone have any 45 ACP small primer brass they want to get rid of? I have more Magnum Small Pistol primers than large pistol and any time I find some 45 ACP at the LGS I buy a couple boxes if it is small primer brass. Have a couple boxes of that and will shoot that first and then reload those before dipping into my large primer stash of 45 ACP.

[Vaquero]

Forty I do. Not sure how many, pretty sure I about where they are hiding. I'll get back with you.

Hey Al, putting these to a test later.
Got a good friend just south of St. Louis picked up a Henry CCH in 45 colt and said these preformed well in it.
Checked data, between 19.7 and 20.2, with a very max. of 20.8 with extreme caution.
Going to see if the Cowboy or Rossi like either.
