Hi guys, My dad just bought a Pedersoli Trapdoor carbine a few days back. What was the original load for the carbines? I heard that they used a 405 grain bullet backed up by 50 grains of black powder. Is this true? He fired some loads that we had for our Shiloh sharps and these were 500 grain bullets with about 60 grains of powder. I guess the recoil was a bit on the stout side. As always, any info would be appreciated.
