Hi ya'all I am new here have done some posting on the what powder thread and started one 45-70 trapdoor.
Wheni decided to build a trapdoor for fum shooting and not use the heirloom collector one I already had I started browsing a number of forums about reloadin, ammo etc. found one site mostly dedicated to trapdoors and shooting them and one member there was saying he used 30-32grs of 5744 with a toilet paper wad tamped down on the powder to hold it to the primer with the .500gr boolit inserted all grooves and lands in the case no crimp. He didn't say if there is an air gap or where.
A larger number of posters were swaying in capitol letters DON'T USE SMOKELESS POWDER IN TRAPDOORS EVER. This warning was based on the diff in pressure rise and rise timing between smokeless and BP. What say you?
After reading through this tread and recalling reading on BPCR that the Q has banned the use of wads with duplex smokeless I suspect this blow up is the reason why?

No Lumpy the barrel ruptured in this case,

Go back to post #15

Your 'rite'-Thought this was the other oneBlush
