    44/40 subsonics

    So, I had previously never looked at loading using trailboss.
    Whats the deal, fill the case up to just below where it would be a compressed Load ?
    Std primer ?

    Educate me !

    You depart with mighty boasts, but you come back having done little.
    Sounds like a typical hunting trip !

    Max load of 6.5gr, don't think that would be a compressed load.

    Do not compress Trail Boss it doesn't behave nicely, In a 44/40 it is easy to load subsonic any fast pistol or shot gun powder is fine
    just start with the start load and you should be close with powders like AP 30 , AP50 and AP 70
