Has anyone had issues shooting the Fiocchi Cowboy Action 45-70 405 grain in black powder guns? The fsp is listed as 1185. I was hoping to shoot it in a black powder 1885 and 1886? Both guns are in good shape but I have only used black powder in the past. Thanks for the help.

CA loads are always low pressure, as are most other factory loads for BP-era cartridges. High-pressure loads for modern guns like 1895 Marlins have warnings on the boxes against use in antiques.

Never shot this ammo but the listed FPS is not out of range for either gun.
