The Gun Digest Blackpowder Loading Manual

This book is the absolute must-have loading reference for the active shooter using muzzleloader or replica cartridge guns. Learn all about blackpowder and its use. AuthorFadala expertly guides both the novice and the veteran charcoal-burner through today's arms, powders, accessories and uses.

Muzzleloading hunters will find plenty of good load information for in-line rifles using the latest projectiles, including sabots. The traditional arms aren't neglected - rifles, muskets, shotguns, caplocks, revolvers and pistols are well represented.

Cowboy action and rifle silhouette shooters will find plenty of cartridge data: tested loads for revolvers, lever-action rifles and long-range single-shot rifles.
