This video compares the ballistic performance of Pyrodex powder versus Pyrodex pellets in a Pietta 1860 Army Colt. The tests indicate that Pyrodex pellets offer greater consistency and higher average velocity compared to loose Pyrodex powder when loaded with 30 grains equivalent. The presenter notes the importance of consistent loading techniques for black powder firearms.
This video provides a range review of Kaido 240-grain, .44 caliber bullets. The reviewer, Dustin Winegar, found that these bullets did not universally fit popular .44 caliber revolvers like the Remington New Model Army and 1847 Walker Colt without modification. The 1860 Army Colt, with some prior modification, provided a good fit. Shooting was limited to the 1860 Army Colt with a 30-grain charge of Triple FG Goex black powder, yielding an average velocity of 691 fps at 45 feet.
