woowee! Thats a little more felt recoil.

First conical load I've ever tried in this underhammer.

60gr pyrodex P
460gr No Excuse .451 conicals
100 yards, no swabbing.

After these shots, I adjusted 7" up and to the left a bit. Got to clean the bore out and then try it again.

45-70

60gr Pyrodex P is already more than the original load.
 
That was always a weak load for killing humans. Look at what they use now for hunting.
 
I shoot 80-85 gr of 777 2f w/460 gr no excuse from my .451 White, feels like a hard shove recoil isn't bad at all. Also shoot 80 gr 777 2f from my .504 White, anything above 85 gr. start to thump a bit.
