DID SEAFIRE EVER PUBLISH HIS MANY LOADINGS USING BLUE DOT IN RIFLE CARTRUGES.
IF HE DID ARE THEY STILL AVAILABLE.
First post; welcome.
Turn off your caps; hard to read.
Put this in the reloading section.
Just what I would do.
Blue dot is for cast bullets or maybe a real slow jacketed one.

TCLouisSomewhere lurking back in the dusty musty bit pile of the past should have a lot of Seafire's
posts and replies from users of his technique.
Duckduckgo.com search (not those spyware search engines) for Seafire, or Blue Dot or some combo should drag all that history forward for you.
I'm betting that someone here has the links you need.
Remember as he repeatedly posted they may still be higher pressure, even though lower recoil loadings.

cal pappasI've been shooting BD for 20+ years in my bore rifles (12-, 10-, 8-, 4-bore) and developed my own formula for use in cartridges originally charged with black powder. BD works like a charm and today am loading 20 cases to take to South Africa in six days.
