.450 BPE Pyrodex loads?
      24/03/10 07:29 PM

Gent's,

Just joined your excellent forum and wondered if anyone has used Pyrodex in BPE loads? I have just aquired a J. Lawson .450 Express hammer DR (BP proof only) and in deference to her age and beauty I intend to use just Swiss or Pyrodex CTG for my loads. I have both gas checked and hollow base 300 gr heads of .458" and will be using standard large rifle primers. I have a copy of Graeme Wright's excellent book (3rd Edition)and although a mine of information there is little reference to the use of Pyrodex so any help out there greatly appreciated. The obvious course of action is to fill the case leaving enough space for a grease cookie and seat the head to the correct OAL? I intend to go down this route as I have a rare 38-40 Remington Hepburn Sporting rifle which works just fine with Swiss and Pyrodex CTG but this is my first DR so any info most welcome.
