Dustin Winegar demonstrates a simplified method for reloading .45 Colt black powder cartridges, suitable for single-action revolvers. This guide covers preparing cast lead bullets by removing old lube and applying black powder-specific lubricants, resizing and priming brass, charging with 35 grains of GOEX FFFg black powder, seating bullets directly onto the powder, and applying a final crimp. The instructor emphasizes filling the case completely and offers an alternative lubrication technique for cylinder chambers.
This video demonstrates the pan lubing technique for cast bullets, specifically for .50-90 Shiloh Sharps rifles. Larry Potterfield explains that lubricant reduces barrel leading and softens fouling for better accuracy and function. The process involves melting lubricant in a double boiler and pouring it around base-down bullets, which are then extracted once cooled and ready for reloading.
