Just curious whether anyone here is using 5744 for their .45-70 handloads?
And specifically with the .405gn boolits ... I've got a 500-unit box of COATED .405gn FPs that's been collecting dust since last deer season. Other projects have kept me from sitting down and developing loads for my Marlin SBL.
I also have about ten canisters of the 5744 that need to get used, ... hence my query for the .45-70 experts about using that propellant.
Just looking for a good load on deer, as well as for practice and plinking. Don't need a shoulder bustin', magnum-level bear-stopper.
Thanks in advance!
