Re: 45 70 low loads
You will struggle to find a load within 475 ft lbs...11gns Unique will do around 1000fps and me of 899 ft lbs...try a lighter bullet...?

Re: 45 70 low loads
Because of REACH, TrailBoss is now defunct in the EU and hence U.K. we've found that 12.5gns of Vhit N32C, also know as TinStar, is very similar.
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Re: 45 70 low loads
Trailboss is no loss when you have N32C or Red Dot available they do almost exactly the same burning rates with the same case filling ability but at nearly half the price Trailboss is a real rip off.
