For training your horse get a .22 and use the stud driver blanks.

Hope somebody with some expertise answers then, I only load CAS ammo, never tried rolling blanks. When we did an exhibition we used commercial 5 in 1 blanks.

I am New to this, and Never used Blanks, but i've heard mentioned that it is sometimes Possable to use a Thin paper wad to hole the powder in place, and graduate in Minimal charge increase. But Deffinately do the homework, for that is merely Hearsay, until Proven...I believe it's Never wise to attempt New Projects with Ammo of ANY kind, without experienced supervision... Good Luck
