Rick, I wonder if the book from Track Wolf is just for black powder ? I've never found a nitro load that works with brass shells. Its been suggested maybe its the OSC being glued in and not crimped.

Track is a black powder shop, they have supplied parts for muzzleloader builders for many years.

but - true - with the limited searching I have done, I have only see black powder recipes for brass hulls.

Milton Use some triple seven in your brass hulls. Not as nasty as black powder and about 15% more powerful. Just rince the hulls with water,let them dry and your ready to rock and roll.
