[QUOTE="ENCORE, post: 1063115, member: 33046"] Assuming you have the proper CVA or Western Breech plug for properly shooting BH? If not, you'll need that for proper ignition. Using production rifles, most shooters using BH, find charges of between 100 to 110grs VOLUME the ideal charge. A huge number settle on 110grs volume, as it appears to be a "sweet spot" for most barrels and with quality bullets. BH can be weighed, as Western Powders has provided the volume to weight conversion number, .7 Western provides that information: [URL="http://www.blackhorn209.com"]www.blackhorn209.com[/URL] [B]In all cases, 120grs VOLUME or 84grs by WEIGHT is a [U]maximum charge.[/U][/B] Example: 120 x .7 = 84 So 120grs VOLUME times .7 equals 84grs WEIGHT (Maximum charge). Example 2: 110v x .7 = 77grs WEIGHT [/QUOTE]
