[QUOTE="thwatson2, post: 1735394, member: 56839"] I have used trail boss and blue dot. They both were running around 975 and 1050 FPS using magnum primers and 535 grain greasers. Very fun to shoot but both tended to key hole beyond 100 yards and they were not hunting rounds. They were also very dirty so I just went to black powder for my fun loads. Always be sure of your measurement of powder, the pressures can be dangerous in those powders. Not the kind of groupings that 4198 will give you [/QUOTE]
