Lovex D060 loads for 45-70 government under lever

[Mark1]

Does anyone have experience of using Lovex D060 powder for cowboy loads in 45-70 government calibre? I am looking for an alternative to the Trail Boss powder I currently use.

The gun is a Chiappa 1886 under lever, bullet is Lees 405 grain RNFP.

Any reloading data, comments on pressure and experiences with using this powder would be of interest.

I am looking for velocities around 1000fps and pressures below 28000psi

thanks

I have used Shooters World, Buffalo Rifle, Lovex D060 in cast 30-06 loads. I found it to be just a little slower than 4759, very similar to 5744. For me it falls right between 4227 and 4198 in speed. I have also shoot some in one of my smokeless MLs

I was shooting 23 gr in 30-06 cases with 218 boolits from an Arsenal 311331 mold. 26" barrel gave 1520 FPS very consistent and was not position sensitive at all.

I believe you will find 45/70 / Buffalo rifle data on Shooters World web page. look at page 25.
