--Thanks for all the advice gang. Sounds like the thing to do with
the powder I've got is to try grinding it wet with brass mortar and pestel.
This #4 flintlock (?) priming powder sounds like a good bet too; where would one
find that? Will have another look thru the Dixie catalog; they've got damn
near everything, yes?
