  1. I tried this years back.  With GOEX ... 5 grains 4f, 20 grains 2f or 10 grains 4f and 15 grains 2f in my Old Army's with a .457 RB and didn't notice anything different.  No fouling change, or recoil change.

  2. Since I don't have a loading stand mounted on my cart, I either do it at the unloading table, while manning it, or taking up a corner if possible.  Otherwise I find an neighboring bay that is empty and use a table there, or finding a sturdy table or bench I can use.  I always mind my muzzles, and handle them using the barrels.  15 years doing that way.

  3. I have Miroku, I got it 2nd hand a few years back.  Already had an action job, can't recall who I was told that did it, it always felt 'clunky' to me.  Last year I had some extra foldin' money, and purchased Shotgun Boogie's spring kit and firing pin kit.  Runs real smooth.  I can't get a shave that smooth either unfortunately.

  4. From what I understand, it was made for black powder loads, and with the advent of smokeless, people where blowing them up.  A recall happened, and the new improved 1897 was introduced to withstand smokeless loads.
