You can really go with black powder in a 1911? I'd love to try that.
I plan on using only real black powder. Depending on how this goes, I might start working on a black powder shotgun sabot...

Thank you for replying! I'd be working with either a Browning or Beretta o/u. 500 grain slug. Why would you advise against that action?

Does anyone have load data for 12 gauge black powder slugs (not round ball)? I'd like to load these in a modern gun (Browning or Beretta). What kind of velocity is possible going this route?
