Better choices than that 405.
Look at Postell and Creedmoor profile.
Load with black until you compress the powder about 1/8" when the bullet is seated.
What do you call long range?
What rifle are you looking at?

Not rust!
Copper fouling from test firing.
Your gun is made of stainless steel.

In fact, with all of your help, in the 14 years I have owned this rifle, it has never run better. I am electric. Skid.
Best of news.
I do suggest you look into a 1 piece firing pin.

I have a uberti 1885 highwall, and my son has a trapdoor, both un 45/70, sights are a big thing as I'm learning, I've never been there before, so we're going to give it a go this year.
You are correct, my mistake.
SORRY!

As a side note, and a sad one, I got an Email earlier today, which I unfortunately deleted. Apparently the founder and landowner of the Forsyth, MT Quigley match passed away. You may want to check the status of that match.
Al's family said the shoot will continue.

My wife has no problems shooting her Shiloh Sharps Hartford Model in .45-70 at the Q.
I use a Shiloh #1 in .45-90.

I tried to lever it. It jammed. Figured it was bad news. When I took the stock off, pieces fell off. Old age, maybe.
Curious, can you post pictures of it?

FYI, picture won't open.

Unfortunately yes, we've got an '87 that myself and the boys use for fun sometimes in a match. But I can't say I'm overly fond of it.
What extra requirements are involved to buy a pump or lever SG, compared to a SxS?
Black powder 45/70s

Get rid of that IAB.
Can't get any parts for them.
You want a barrel R.O.T. of at least 1/18.
Do not use smokeless powder bullet lube with BP.
