Blackhorn 209

[Semtav]

Ok folks who wants to spill their guts about running this stuff?
Shadow, Porta, Semtav, you guys payin any attention?
I loaded 20 rounds with 37 grs and a .060 wad in fireformed Remington cases, primed with Federal 215 match primers, and topped with the 527 gr money bullet from John Olsen. She ran these thru her hiwall for a few rounds then I finished the lot up.
Anyway accuracy was pretty decent at 300.
So I cleaned the gun washed the brass, and am now comtemplating the next effort to see if we can get this stuff to work for Carol and her hiwall.
Thinking next go will be 39 grs with the 645 saeco bullet, see if the recoil isn't slapping her in the cheek as much as the heavier bullet...

Oh man !!!!! Whats the world coming to !!!.

I think Dave Gamble uses 32 gr with a money bullet . Seem to remember it being a pretty accurate load. . He said you just don't have to get them there that fast. Bullets have to be harder. WW +3% etc.
I was using 36 in my 45-90. Never got past 100 yds to see how it would do. First two shots were always touching, then the 3-5 would drop and inch lower.
