pet 45-70 load for pedersoli rolling block

If you ever had a look at the Lyman cast bullet handbook, you would see that Andy and others aren't "mad scientist" types. For banging gongs at 100 or 200 I'm sure Unique would work fine. It has nothing to do with lazy or broke either.

Yeah ok , my diesel truck will run with french fry oil but i dont put that in my tank either....a new guy is asking what the best gong banger is and I gave it to him ( 4198 IMR or similar ) you mad scientist types can use whatever you want in your gun designed in 1874 and I will use what is meant for it. ask anyone competing in long range shoots ( who are most of the people who know WTF they are talking about and find out how many of them regularly put Unique in their Sharps/springfields/etc ) that will be none ! unless they are lazy, or broke and trying to share powder with their handgun/shotgun. Get a grip.

Welcome to the forums....'Get a grip'...

Folks will be using black powder in long range shoots, but some of those faster burning powders are fine in the 45/70 for those lower pressure loads. When you are loading heavy loads in the modern marlin, there is a preference for the slower burning powders.

An ignorant and narrow-minded response.
