load data
I believe 3 grains of black powder for a start
dr eq = drams equivalent. Black powder used to be measured in drams, which was a measure of the volume of black powder used in a load (basically the amount used). When smokeless powder came along later, both smokeless powder and black powder existed at the same time for a while. A smaller amount of smokeless powder was equal in power to a larger amount of black powder. To keep things simple shells using smokeless powder were referenced to how many drams of black powder would be needed to produce similar results. This continued into modern times. A shell marked 3 1/4 dr eq is roughly equal to a black powder load of 3 1/4 drams. This allows an idea of how much power a shell has regardless of the actual amount of powder that is inside the shell.
black powder, bullet patch, projectile.
It would depend on the powder charge, weight of load, and aerodynamics of the load (Solid slug, shot, etc)
pour in the powder, stuff a wad in with ramrod, pour in the shot, stuff another wad on top of that.
To load a black powder gun, first, ensure the firearm is pointed in a safe direction and the hammer is at half-cock. Measure the appropriate amount of black powder using a powder measure and pour it into the barrel. Next, insert a pre-measured projectile (such as a lead ball or bullet) followed by a wadding, if necessary, to keep the projectile in place. Finally, use a ramrod to seat the projectile firmly against the powder, and then prime the pan or add a percussion cap, depending on the type of black powder gun.
Follow the instruction in the owner's manual. If you don't have one, contact Knight. Good advice, If you don't know how to do it get instruction from a local club member or black powder shooter. Your local gun shop may be able to put you in touch with someone. The loading is just like loading a shotgun shell. I use 60 grains of 2F powder, then an over powder wad or a shot cup depending on what I am hunting, then 1oz of ___ (fill in the blank depending on what you are hunting) shot, followed by an over shot card. Same as a shot shell but the barrel is the hull.
Depends on the shotgun- different types load differently.
fill it all the way up get 1000 fps no worry about blowing up
The typical load for a .44 black powder pistol varies depending on the specific firearm and intended use, but it generally ranges from 20 to 30 grains of black powder. Some shooters may use more or less powder based on their preferences or the specific powder type. It's important to follow the manufacturer's recommendations and guidelines for safe loading practices. Always ensure proper measurement and safety when handling black powder.
