I'm loading Trailboss for my 1950 Colt Detective Special. My objective is very mild and reasonably accurate ''powder-puff'' loads. This is may not be relavent but, I'm using 158gr LSWC Bear Creek Supply Moly-bullets.
I'm using an old Pacific powder measure. It works fine with other powders, ball, stick, etc...
I'm trying to start the load at 3.5gr. My results are erratic at best, ranging from just over 2gr to nearly 5gr! I'll set the measure, triple check the weight, fill 50rds in a block, inspect the cases and it's all over the place. Some nearly full, some nearly empty, some fairly close.
The little ''donuts'' seem almost ''static clingy'' in the way they stick to stuff, too?
Is anybody having this problem? Should I just make up a dipper?
