Hey guys, I'm new here. I was suggested here by a guy over at Greybeard.
I had this idea of reloading one of my 45-70s with trailboss or unique, preferably in the 8-900 fps area, with a heavy grain pill. Someone suggested I strongly look into casting.
I think it's a great excuse to get into the hobby. I've looked over a lot of your stickies and I still have a lot of reading to do. Just wanted to start a post to get ideas on what all I will need to get...I need your suggestions here. I plan on casting only for this caliber right now. Someone said I should go almost pure lead, slightly overbore, and they said I should really try out about a 400 grner.
Is there anything out of the ordinary I need to account for in shooting at a lower velocity(what about in picking out equipment)? I'm doing this because I want something relatively quiet that I can plink with...plus it'd be something really different.
Thanks for your time.
