I just purchased a 1858 Remington and I am planning to get the Howells conversion cylinder for it.. This is my first blackpowder pistol. I know the obvious, like don't use smokeless ammunition in a blackpowder firearm, but I've also read about people using cowboy action loads in them.. Don't they use smokeless powder for those? I know theres a difference between the blackpowder cartridges and the regular cowboy loads. But my main question is it safe to use smokeless cowboy loads in a steel frame 1858?
