I'm looking for some .45 Colt BP loads. I'll be using Pyrodex Select (FFg equilant).

One of my reloading manuals list a load of 37 grs. It says this is max load. Anyone know if this is a compressed load.

What I am going to do is use this as a base starting point on working up some BP .454 Casull rounds. The only other BP I've loaded is my .45-110 Sharps.

Any assistance would be appreciated.
