Here`s a pic with the TrailBoss. The Munich Proofhouse has tested the load and the result is ,that the load is absolutely o.K. 
The gaspressure is only 40bar over the BP-load and the speed difference is 2m/s in a 5 shot average.

40 bar is about 590 psi, yes? That's not much at all!

jmoore,
you`re right! We thaught that there will be more. The max. pressure of the TB is only 0.2 milliseconds faster reached than the BP. So there will be no safety problem at all.
Best regards
Gunner
Patrick,
where can we shoot BP competitions in Germany
? The BDMP in Bavaria has no LM`s in LRSPG1 and SPPDG1. Where do you shoot ?
Best Regards

The BDMP LRSPG1 and SPPDG1 competitions take place at Alsfeld, for 100 and 300 meters. 600/900/1000 yards are shot at Bisley, once a year. As we regularly see a team from Luxembourg at Alsfeld, I think a keen shot could also make the journey from Munich!

Agree that using black powder in my `71 Mauser carbine is much the wisest choice. I `phoned the German proofing house in Ulm and was told that they could proof it ... but the only proofing cartridges in stock for the `71 were CIP Nitro! Apparently I don´t have to have the `71 proofed. But would like to have it done.
In the mean time, I´ve now managed to get hold of a Werder cavalry carbine. Intend to size the cases out of `71s that seem to be freely available. Shall have to take a black powder re-loading course first to get a permit.

It's your rifle. If you have it reproofed, please get confirmation in writing that the marking will be made on the underside of the system, so as not to spoil the appearance of the rifle, before you let them proof it!

That is very good to hear.

Once more - congratulations! Now you will have to get really up to speed on BPCRs, with case forming etc.
What's next on the carbine list? A Martini-Henry or a Snider? - If you see one of these in Mauserland, go very carefully indeed. The majority appear to be products of that enterprising company Ali Bubba & Sons of 666 Khyber Pass Road, Kabul, "purveyors of fine fakes to the undiscerning since time immoral".

Hahaha, great! Patrick, can you share their catalogue with me? I think a Snider would be fun too! Ali Bubba..........
