[QUOTE="Will Gray, post: 1966571, member: 65116"] I am sure there are some Trail Boss loads that would be fine. Some of the light loads in large cartridges talk about putting Cream of Wheat in as a filler or cotton (cotton ball I guess). I have an old Lyman cast bullet manual so for a big case I looked at a .45-90 using 14g (18.2g max) of Unique behind a 400g plain base lead bullet. I do not have much experience with light loads. Be SURE the bullet makes it out of the barrel before firing a second one!!! Lots of information on such on the WEB. I would think 10g of Unique behind a 158g lead bullet would be fine, but I have not done such in quite a while and have no notes on the subject: you are on your own. Unique is powerful, be certain that you do not double charge when loading light loads. I use a plastic rod to check that all the cases are filled to the same level. [/QUOTE]
