DDan, big thing on black powder capacity is in my mind, shooting deep seated greasers wastes powder space. I patch to bore dia on my loads. So a .026" hard card on top the black , 3/16" lube wad, another .026" card then seat the patched bullet maybe 1/8". Yeah the whole bullet is damn near in the rifling which of course is the finest inline seater there is. Last years 45 2.1" loads were with 81.5 grains of Swiss 1.5 Fg and I know of others who used even more. MB
