OK,
I'm sure those Hooligans have done this so looking for what you guys have done.
I have a 45 mold that drops a 215gr bullet and sizer for .452
I use this with Trailboss right now for my Taylors Colt 45 Revolver and Henry Lever action.
I'd like to look at loading up some FFFG and lube the bullets (2 grooves) with the Lube I use for the Springfield 1863 Muskets (Old Trappers MCM Lube).
I know I dont want a gap between powder and bullet.
I measured 35grains of FFFG gets me to the point of powder touching the bottom of the seated/crimped bullet. I can bump it a tad to make sure I'm getting a slight compression (or should I).
Do I need to drop the powder amount and add in a lubed wad between the Powder and the bullet?
Any other advice before I start? I'd prefer to hear form the MDS group vs jumping on another forum
Regular Large Rifle Primers ok with FFFg?
