Silver Sides Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 I just acquired a 45-90 sharps replica. I am seeking assistance with smokeless load data for 405gr lead bullets. Any help would be appreciated. Please PM me with any load data that those of you with a 45-90 may be using. Thanks for the assistance.
Captain Woodrow Cahill, SASS # 54363 Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 Accurate 5744 powder is probably your best choice for smokeless in those big ol' BP cartridges. Check Reloaders Nest or the Accurate website for some good data.
Jackson Rose, SASS #45478 Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 Try www.imrpowder.com Trailboss works well in 45-70, imr can tell you if it will work in 45-90.
J. Mark Flint #31954 LIFE Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 Had one, liked it, but it shot better with BP than any of the smokeless loads I found published. 90 grains of FFg is a fun load with the 405 or even 350 grain bullets.
