Sorry no, but I have always thought it could work well for the 25-20!

A friend of mine finds lil gun to be too erratic. He has better luck with h-4198 and another who likes h-322.
Both in rifles. This might be a little too slow for a pistol, so I would recommend a powder like vv N-110.

Consider h110.

H4198 left lots of unburned powder but shot nice. I've switched to N110 and it's working pretty well.

I shoot a 25-20win L/A Rifle for Cowboy Pistol Cartridge Silhouette.

Dad was shooting a T/C 25-20Win for FP Prod. (before I got him a BF in 32-20)

I would stay WELL clear of Lil Gun as it has a Very high Potential Heat of Explosion. This will lead to shorter barrel life.

Lil Gun = 4090 Kj per Kg
VV N110 = 4020 Kj per Kg
H322 = 4000 Kj per Kg
H4198 = 3860 kj per Kg


I use 85gr Cast pills with 6gr-7gr of ADI 2205
