I have been practicing all week with my Ruger Old Army. Our second black powder season opens in a couple of weeks. Tried several loads with round ball and Lee Old Army bullet, Goex, white hots and Shockey,s Gold. Settled on a home made dipper made from a 44 special case, full of Shockey,s Gold and Lee bullet, consistent 2" groups from a rest at 25 yards when I am REAL carefull with the loading process. Mixed a little vinegar Windex and some Dawn with boiling water, every thing came clean as a wistle. I had sprayed it down with Ballistol at the end of each shooting session so the residue was already pretty soft. Four days of practice, eight cylinders full each day.
