I just read a back issue of 'Guns' magazine from 1960 regarding an 1860 Colt.
The writer was using a duplex load of 2 grains of Red Dot smokeless powder under 30 grains of FFF black powder in each chamber, and topping it with a .44cal. round ball. He claimed this load shot very clean.
My question is, has anyone here has ever heard of it from some of the oldtimers or used it themselves.
