35 grains 777 under a kerr and not much room left.

Plenty of oomph there! That Kerr is a great bullet.

today was shoot the 1858 dry, clean and reload day. I hit my 5" steel plate and it went flying about 10ft in the air came unhooked from the rope its on and disappeared in the snow, Took me 5 min with a landscaping rake to find it. thats what a 200g conical and .25g T7 does. .454 Rb it rings and swings back about 18 inches.. exceptionally dramatic difference in power.
