OK, so really it's a pre-micro Marlin chambered for .35 Remington. I'm gonna work up some Ideal #358430 black powder loads for it. Somebody is gonna ask why in the world would I wanta do that. Well, because I don't have a .350 Remington mag to work up black powder loads for.
So anyhow, how to make a lube cookie work behind that little shoulder has got me to scratching my head.
Maybe a little corn meal cover over the powder will be used to keep it in place and separated from a glob of lube nestled under the boolit.
I'm not coming up with any other concepts yet for a compressible material. Cream of wheat tries to be a plug. Corn meal remains more frangible.
Guess I need to look up info on loading the bottle necks of long ago.
Huh, and now I'm wondering if maybe a gas check would work better 'cause it's a scraper.
This will be some kinda fun.
