Hello
So I have a Pedersoli Long Range Express. in 45/70 that I would like to work up a load for.
I have a Lyman 457132 and also the Lyman 457658
I hear the 457648 can be finicky and I'm better off shooting the 457132.
I was paper patching the bullets and have had accuracy results consistent with the greasers I shoot. No load development done really just picking a load from the middle of the data and shooting it.
I have a few of powders suggested for this bullet (H4198, RL7X, IMR30301, Varget) and I'm wondering If I should bother working with them or to move on to accurate 5744 which seems to be the cats meow for most of these straight walled old cartridges?
Am I wasting time loading up a bunch of test loads with these other powders or not?
Oh and I'm shooting the rifle off of bags using Pedersoli mid range Soule rear and a Lyman globe front with a post insert.
Thanks guys!
