Have been a holly black shooter for many years in the sharps 45/70 and high wall 38-55, recently purchased a 1873 trapdoor 45/70 I was always told that the hollow base bullets in a 405 wt. are what I should be using. Any ideas for how to fill the void in the bullet with powder. Was always told no air space allowed! Looking for some guidance. Do you use a wad?
Thanks in advance.
