Thanks for all the comments from all parties ! It is much appreciated

The one issue i have with BP and at least the hardware that I have been using for loading my flints/caps, is that my volume measure is not all that precise.

Not to derail the thread, but for my 54 caplock I have settled on 95grains of FFg for that rifle. Gives good power with round lead ball and accuracy when 'making meat'. My .50 flint like 75grains...

All this being said, my measure is cut for every 5-10 grains...as I recall..... What I did then is carve a horn tip to the size for the volume and use that to load from the horn.

Anyone know of a BP measure that is more precise? Haven't done a web search as yet.
