I remember a previous discussion on this forum in which someone posted ads and warnings that appeared in the press at the time warning about not using your black powder measure to load the new smokeless powder by volume. It was found to be the reason that barrels were failing because of the gross overload. Once people became aware of that the problem went away until 1937 or so when the warnings appeared.
