[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 1465298, member: 10178"] If you want to shoot smokeless with cast bullets in the 45-70 get you some Accurate 5744 powder. Don't worry if it looks like the powder is not all burning when you look into your bore. This powder burns dirty but it really shoots in my rifle very accurately, just as accurate as BP at shorter ranges. When I do my part with my cast bullet from the Lyman 405 mold it will ragged hole groups at 100 yards. You might also want to slug your bore to see what diameter bullet you actually need. You may be shooting bullets that are too small. [/QUOTE]
