I have a 1989 Hodgdon "Basic Data Manual" and in the Pyrodex section (yes, this has a section just for Pyrodex data) it lists 20-25 gr of 'CTG or RS' for 250gr (lead) .45LC loads.
I happened upon a pound of RS recently and I'd like to use it in my Vaquero. Are there any here that have used it and have comments/recommendations? For example, I typically use Unique with the 454190 Lyman boolit (or the Lee 255 and 200 RF) so if I was to use the RS that I have...do I need different lube (from the basic 50/50 I use now)? This would be my first foray into "black powder" cartridges and I'm looking for advice. Oh yeah, I also have a .45LC Uberti 1860 Henry that I would use this in also....any special considerations for the rifle?
Thanks
Semper Fi!
