Agrred Daryl......thou it was instant success for me, as I used a proven set up.

"My" load is a Fed 215 primer, 70grs Goex FFg, .050 card, .100 grease cookie, 500gr Hoch nose pour 1-14lead/tin, 9lb 35% rag paper in Nickled R-P cases. I have shot 18 rounds at one time (all I had) without having to clean it. Cleaning it is a patch or mop with a bit of non-ammonia dish soap. Takes 2 minutes, stand the rifle by the wood stove to dry (or set in the Sun in summer) and it is ready for the next session.

Don't forget to look at Orville Loomer's book as well. Actually I think it is far advanced of Paul's works. I knew Paul as I lived in Pa, not 100miles from him. He helped me with my first ever 45/70, a old re-barreled Rolling Block. I know Orville as well as he lives just down the road.
