It's surprising to me that many of our members will spend thousands on an individual gun, yet want to spend next to nothing on ensuring their personal safety when it comes to pressure data for a load in a vintage gun.
I really encourage either sending a sample of the lot to Armbrust at $5/shot or buying a Pressure Trace or both. The other option is following a loading manual. It's your hands, eyes and face that are literally right on the gun. There are enough unknowns in shooting a vintage gun. Actual pressure data is very comforting.
