need a load suggestion

[Jim]

I'd like suggestions to use bullseye under an RB in .45-70. I'd like to get about 1K fps M/V. Any experience here? Remember, BULLSEYE, NOT ANYTHING ELSE!

Imake RB loads using Red Dot which is a bit slower than Bulls eye. I have used 5 and 10 gr loads with a 457 ball lubed in LLA and pushed all the way down on the powder with a dowel stick. They work well. I never chronoed them but would guess the 5 gr load goes around 80 FPS and the 10 gr one about 12 to1300 fps. Cut the loads one grain for BE and try them.
