well had too much time on my hands again today so my feeble mind took over and i came up with another conunderum for myself...so here is where i pawn the thought on to others to see if your thoughts go the same way as mine did.
this prolly should be in another spot but i wanted to involve fellers that i know lend theirselves in thought and as such have solved the smokless paperpatch problems...so here it lands and if for some reasson it gets moved then i understand.......i think
concerning firearms designed in blackpowder days i use small doses of AA5744 + fill [cornmeal] and call it good and never thought about comparing it to other powders for the preassure range.
looking at 45-70 for example...i see that way more grains of 3031 from IMR for instance...[really like IMR 3031]...has less preassure then the AA5744 powder . so being a natural obnoxious feller i deduce that if i can get more powder in my cases...be they 45-70 or 43 spanish...using the IMR 3031 ... then i can preassurewise with the AA5744 ... then the chance of double loading is reduced and i get to use my fav powder.
had a knowledgable feller provide info that you could NOT get enough 3031 in a case to harm a rifle no matter what manufacture date it has on it and still seat a bullet so as to chamber in said firearm.
so im asking others if my thinking is foobar or if yall think im on the rite path. dont want to ever get close to blowing up a good rifle from yesteryear...IMR 4350,,,IMR4831,,,IMR4064...ect
what say yee ??
