45-70 Lite!
Re: 45-70 Lite!
I’ve used 12-13 grains of Unique under a 405gr Missouri .459 coated bullet in my 1888 Springfield Trapdoor. Very mild and accurate. I usually cut a 3/4”X 3/4” square piece of toilet tissue and use a dowel to push it down to keep the powder up against the primer. Tried 2400 with no luck in accuracy.

I load trail boss for plinking. Usually need some fiber fill behind the bullet to keep the powder load compressed enough when they are horizontal in the rifle. Light recoil, good practice rounds

Don't listen to people that say you don't need more guns and ammo. No one needs that kind of negativity in their lives!!
