What is the reccomended load for a .58 Harpers?

Zonie said:I don't know what the original loads were for the Harpers Ferry pistol but Dixie Gunworks catalog says the load for the .58 U.S. Springfield Pistol Model 1855 was a .570-.575 ball over 40 grains of FFg powder.
That gun was a "Pistol-Carbine" with a 12 inch barrel but I would think the load would work quite well in your pistol.
