I'm not exactly sure where i found that load size but I had it written in my notes, of components and load charges, but dropping down in grains won't hurt either, thanks for that bit of information. CheersRoyce,
The military charge for the Snider was only 70grains so at 75 it would kick a bit. When I got mine I tried starting at 50 grains & up in increments of 5 grains & the most accurate load I found (for my rifle) is 65 grains, shooting a 560 grain Minie.
