I tried some BP and Pyrodex with jacketed bullets
in my .45-75 WCF. I really think that the lube that can be distributed in the bore by the cast bullet is preferable to the "scraping" one must count on to remove powder fouling with the jacketed bullets. Get by with it? Yes. Hunt with it? Yes. The best choice for shooting? Not so much. That's just my take on it with this one experience.
