They list Trailboss in the "Single Action" section: http://www.adiworldclass.com.au/data-single-action/data-single-action-pistol/44-40-winchester-44-40-wcf Same as Hodgdon (probably where they got their data). You're welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rainmaker, SASS #11631 Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 QB, are you able to get TB now or is it left over from better times? I do know it is (was) made down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savvy Jack Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 That link shows 6.5gr max, I always used 6.4gr just because at the time it is what my measure panned out! Trail Boss creates a low velocity (min) and high pressure (max) for the 44-40 but sure is accurate in my rifle! Great for plinking all the way out to 300 yards...but with one heck of a trajectory LOL!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
