I live in England where there are so many restrictions on firearms it’s practically impossible to own a handgun and as a result I use Black Powder weapons. I currently own a .36 revolver and a .44 revolver.
I visited a new club recently who only allow Triple 7 propellant and they say that the .36 revolver should only be loaded with 10 grains and the .44 revolver with 12 grains because Triple 7 is more powerful than Black Powder or Piradex.
In my previous club we could use what we liked and as I only had one powder flask with a 15 grain nozzle I used that for both weapons.
Now to my questions which all relate to a 25 yard range:
1. How many grains of Black Powder one should use on a .36 revolver?
2. How many grains of Black Powder one should use on a .44 revolver?
3. Is it possible to say how many grains of Piradex one should use on a .36 revolver?
4. How many grains of Piradex one should use on a .44 revolver?
5. How many grains of Triple 7 one should use on a .36 revolver?
6. How many grains of Triple 7 one should use on a .44 revolver?
