    My main question would be, Why? you are effectively limiting yourself .22LR ballistics (Winchester do at the 40gn end and Aguila do a 60gn sub)
    But with copper or tipped projectiles, that will not perform as intended at such low velocities.
    I take it you have never had ba..booom rounds before then???? Having to point rifle at the moon,slowly lower onto target then fire is not ideal and does wonders towards creating a flinch...
    75/15/10 black powder matters
