I called lee yesterday about the safety prime I have the old style round black ones. They confirmed that those will not work with this press so I ordered the new attle along with this press

Another question: If I work up a load with pyrodex and find some real black powder will the accuracy load be the same for each?
Forum: Muzzleloading.
Just got a new Lyman deerstalker in 50 cal that I plan to shoot only patched round balls through. The real deal is hard to find here locally so I ended up picking up some FFG equivalent pyrodex RS. I...
