Ok I have impulse issues. I have been shooting, hunting and reloading for over 40 years. So I was at a gun show few years back and on a table was a 16.5 " barrel in 45/70 for a Contender. Well not legal for Indiana public land didn't think about it. One day I came across it and gathered some parts and a scope 3X I already had. Loaded some 405 FP with 3031 and about broke my shoulder and scope cut. DAMN. Ok so I found some bullets on auction site 470 GC RB and 330 HP both lead. So researching some I loaded some with black powder since loads must be in the Trap Door category. Much better now and handy.
