This is David’s load data:
.490 roundball seated over a .50 cal. Wonderwad 50 grains by volume of Hodgdon’s Triple 7 FFFg 1250 fps
250 gr. cast bullet 45-48 grains by volume of Hodgdon’s Triple 7 FFFg 1150 fps
OP,
Get your hands on some Allianz Black MZ & you will throw the Hodgdon corrosive [bleep] away.
