misfires and problems with the 45-70
I called Pact the fokes that made my new chronograph.
They suggested change the battry.I did and the problems of erratic readings cleared.It was a new battry that was removed,
but it was failing.
I called accurate powder, they said unburned powder was not unusal for 5744.
I can only relate the misfires to improper primer seating.
I do think I am going to switch to Federal mag primers 215.
I was using 5744 in amounts of 27,30 and 33 grains for a remington jacketed 405 grain bullet. I was averaging 1250 for the 27 grains, 1340 for 30 grains, and about 1450 for 33 grains. They all seem low but fairly consistant.
We will see what the Federal's 215 will do.
