I have a new 1851 rebel deluxe 44 cal pistol. i am brand new to black powder pistol shooter and was wondering about the primer. im loading .445 round ball and about 25 gn of geox 3f. with every shot the primer cap is being blown to bits. they are just a gnarled mess. sometimes they are making it hard to cock the gun for the next shot. is this the way it should be or am i doing something wrong??
Thats it!! simple!!
Thanx all.
