I use CBC 24 guage brass in my snider, I load with 60 grn of TS2 and 15 grn of semolina with a .600 round ball. The case is cut down to fit. I use this at 50 yards and it give some good groups. This is in a Nepalese Snider with a fair bit of space in the chamber. Measure your bore first before trying this, this works in my gun and may not in yours.
