Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 5,800 Posted July 12, 2020 Not sure if this could be any help, but a pard and I switched to Trail Boss and found our rifles "friendlier" to shoot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tennessee Trapper Tom 504 Posted July 12, 2020 Thanks Cold Lake. I’ve had both shoulders replaced, a hip replacement and a real bad back. I had planned to use the rifle for elk hunting. It was a hard choice, but I think elk hunting is becoming a thing of the past for me. I just hope to return to cowboy shooting. I really miss it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skinny snake eyes pickins 6 Posted August 1, 2020 I assume since you were planning to use this for Elk hunting then the gun will handle modern powders and loads? That is one purdy rifle. Why did I open this thread.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

According to David Pedersoli’s website you can use modern smokeless ammo as long as it doesn’t exceed 29.007 CUP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
