First things first....we want photos! PLEASE!

Second, Use Swiss powder and not Goex as Swiss more closely approximates the powder that existed when the rifle was built. Third, don't ever defile that rifle with Pyrodex!

Finally, buy some Swiss 1.5 and try that first and, should you be unable to get that to regulate with the appropriate charge, probably between 6 and 8 drams (1 dram = 27.3 grains by volume) then step up to Swiss 2F.

That's the best advice I can offer you...except maybe that you should rid yourself of this ancient piece of junk! I'll happily spare you the trouble of finding a regulation load and give it a nice home.

Best,

John
