craigster,

What case are you using to form the 11.7x56R brass??
(I have too much Scots blood in my veins to happily pay 2.50-3.50 for each round & would prefer to roll my own.)

yours, satx


The 11.7x56R M1867/96 smokeless powder round and can be made by using the .348 Winchester case.

I'm sorry, but way, way back when I owned a Danish RB chambered in 11.7 x 56R, I only loaded black powder.  I assume that any smokeless powder .45-70 load that is safe for a Trapdoor would be safe for the Danish RB.
