To the clowns;
Just how much powder do you think you are loading?
I load 20 to 22Grains of triple F which even with a ball leaves the cylinder less than 3/4 filled.
If I understand common sense, you do not fill the chambers with triple F and be anywhere near the safety margin built in by the manufacturer!
To the people really trying to answer the post;
I have tried only Cream of Wheat the other substance might be corser and thus better!
I have also used a Greased Patch which also leaves the ball short of filling the chambet to the top and having the ball closest to the forcing cone. I am concerned with trying to not make the ball jump a huge gap to the forcing cone.
I have noticed that even with the ball seated deep that the revolver fires pretty accuratelly! ' Anyone know what the conversion from 22 grains of FFF to what volume of FF? Maybe going to FF might fill the chamber enough to have a safe charge and keep the balls airgap jump minimal?
I appreciate all those of you that are trying to help and answer this question honestly!
I have little use for clowns when discussing explosives like Black Powder...
