I have a Pietta 1873 peacemaker in 44/40 and am looking for a load for it.....

What's everybody shooting in there '73?

6.5 grains of HP38 has been accurate for me in my 1892. It's quite a bit less velocity than the BP load, so should be safe in a BP revolver.
It averages around 1000 fps in my rifle. Listed as Handgun Max load by Hogdon.
