    Here is the first firing with a projectile.
    Went with 4 scoops or 120gr of powder, bit of rag with some copper coat for a patch around the ball.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ji-6...PYZVoYge0dD3gg

    Went down to 3 scoops or 90gr which basically halved velocity so put up the steel again and went to 5 scoops or 150gr, bout the same velocity as 4 scoops so called 4 scoops good

    I had relinquished reloading duty by this stage and the guys must have bent the wick a lot at the flash hole because it got slow at that point.

    Who won the velocity guess then?

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
