Was reading some stuff in the News by SPG awhile back about loading and shooting the .25-20 SS. My recollection has it he was shooting a low wall with a 10 twist barrel. Pretty much followed the recipe with a Stevens 44 and lighter bullets. Might be folks that been down that road know chitt the arm chair theorists can't imagine? First BP cartridge loads I ever kluged together did well for 20 shots, no swabbing, round groupage near about 2" or a bit less. Didn't Chrony that string but will the next. IIRC Steve's loads were in the single digit ES range. Without TP.
