(More customer reviews)Having lived with this book for the past year or more, I cannot help but highly recommend it. It helped me move from the disappointing performance of standard black-powder loadings for the "Trapdoor" into the realm of fine accuracy. Not intended as a continuous thread, it is more like a series of loosely joined articles. There is much repetition from chapter to chapter but the somewhat disjointed format well serves its purpose...teaching the shooter to assemble Black Powder .45-70 Gov't rounds which duplicate the 1880's originals. This allows the shooter to use the original sight settings...no mean feat! No other book or article deals with loading for historical accuracy. I used Wolf's techniques to bring my 104 yr. old trooper back to life. Without this book, I would have traded the rifle off long ago. With it, I'm proud to own a working piece of history; proud to know how to handle and care for it as originally intended; proud to hear the deep-throated bark & feel the "mule-kick" thump as my great-grandfather likely did
