Hey Bill, are you trying to make cornbread in a sixgun?
Grits are made for eat'n with eggs, bacon, corned beef hash and biscuits- not for shoot'n. (But they'll work for shoot'n...they just taste too good!
) Use cream of wheat instead- it tastes nasty!
I've used cornmeal once with grease in a 1860- and it was a mess!
Either lubed wads or just grease is the way to go- but grease is far cheaper.
Just get a grease dispenser from Dixie Gun works and leave the other mess at home- it saves a whole lot of trouble. Do take a towel and some water and even soap with you if the range doesn't have facilities- if they do, just take a towel as your hands will get greasy and nasty from shooting.
If a towel isn't handy, use your shirt tail.
