I bought this a few years ago. I've always wanted an 1873 Colt Peacemaker, just never wanted to drop the coin for one.
I came across the ER by Cimmeron and thought it was a pretty good representation of the Colt.
I have not done a lot of testing with this revolver. The only mold I have is the RCBS 45-270-SAA
I have only loaded this bullet with one load to date. Sized to .452" and rolled in two coats of BLL and loaded over 8.0gr of Universal.
Today I loaded 50rnds with same bullet but over 7.0gr of Hercules Unique.
Brass is once fired WW, WW LPP
Alloy IIRC is air cooled WW+2% tin
