I have a pair of Taylor's 6 round conversion cylinders coming for my Pietta '58 Remingtons. I have a couple hundred rounds on hand of .45 Schofield and .45 Colt loaded with Pyrodex P and the WW boolits lubed with Lyman Black Powder Gold and sized at .452 that I shoot in my Stainless Vaqueros. Are the WW boolits too hard for the Pietta steel?
Naturally, I'd like to pop some caps and make some smoke as soon as they arrive. My plan is to cast for these revolvers in either pure PB with 2% tin or a 25/75 mix of WW and PB, but the current 105 temps here in Hotlanta mean I'm not heating up the lead pot for soft boolits any time soon. Any comments on the above?
