First BP cartridges I ever loaded...I nearly wet myself by the time I finished  :o  Wasn't near as hard as I thought it would be. Going to try that new '76 out friday morning! ;D

Hey, Roosterman, let us know how it goes.  By the way, what powder did you use? :)

You'll cringe in horror.... :o I used 2ff elephant! I  shoot it in my cartridge shot guns.  I've got 6lbs stashed away. This is an old lot from '98. It ignites and burns well, but it's a bit dirty. You never know until you try. I used to be able to buy elephant powder for about $3.00 a can. Those were the days...
I'm thinking of getting a bottle of Pyrodex (YIKES! I never thought I would hear myself say that!) and loading up a few of those , just to see if I may get good results.
