If you are using round ball then the old method was to place a ball in your hand and use just enough powder to cover the ball. But it's not really a serious problem as you can't really overload a modern black powder weapon. The only problem you would have is seating the ball enough on a revolver for the cylinder to index. I've overloaded one enough that I had to trim the ball.\n To make it easier for you just buy a powder flask which will premeasure the load for you.\n Make sure you seal all of the cylinders after you have it loaded to prevent a cook off of all the cylinders at one time, it gets really interesting when that happens.\n If you've never used black powder before it's a lot of fun, a little messy but well worth it.

You have not really given enough info to answer.  What is its condition.   One way for you to find out is to go to library and look in the Blue Book Of Gun Values.

The only safe way do do it is to make a chamber cast and measure the results. There's a product called Cerrosafe, which is a low-melting metal, that you can melt in a double boiler (melts at about 180F) and pour into the chamber. As it cools it will shrink, at which point you can tap it out. Once it gets to room temperature, though, it will regain its original dimensions. Once it's completely cooled, grab a caliper or micrometer and start measuring.\n\nThe problem is that just because you know the caliber, you don't necessarily know what cartridge it takes. .38 special, .357, 9x19, 9x21, 9x23 and a few other calibers all use the same diameter bullet. Better to be safe than sorry by getting accurate information.\n\nSee the link below and search for "cerrosafe." It's on sale this week at Midway USA.

The Winchester Model 1902 was manufactured between 1902 -1931. \n90%    80%    70%    60%    50%    40%    30%    20%\n$200  $150    $120   $100    $90     $80      $75     $65\n\n\nThe Winchester Model 1892 was manufactured between 1892-1941. Your serial # would indicate 1912 as the year of production.\n\n90%----- 80% ---73%---60%     50%    40%    30%\n$2000   $1500   $1300   $1000   $900   $750    $600\n\n"bferg" must be using an old outdated copy of the Blue Book because all of his values are way under actual current values.\n\n32WCF and 32-20WCF are the same.\n\nAdded\nbferg,\nI've checked my back issues of Blue Book. There has been an upward trend in the value of Model 1892's going back to at least the 18th edition which even then (almost 10 yrs. ago) valued an 80% M-1892 at $1100..........$100 MORE than what your showing the value to be today. To believe the values you have listed, you would have to believe the bottom has fallen out of the vintage Winchester market. That hasn't happened. \n\nWhen valuing guns or anything else for that mater, you need to apply common sense and not just blindly cut and paste numbers off a web site.\n\nIf your getting these values from the "ONLINE VERSION" all I can tell you is that they are just flat out wrong. If I where you, I'd ask for my money back.\n\nBTW, I didn't give you the thumbs down.\n\nMORE\nbferg\nI have been debating about whether to buy the online version for awhile now. This incident is certainly going to cause me to take pause and check out the discrepancies here. I just have a hard time believing a vintage 80% Winchester could drop fully 1/3 of it's value in one year.\n\nLAST EDIT\nbferg\nGlad to hear it was just a small human error. I tip my hat to you for acknowledging the error and not just deleting your post.

You haven't given much info here so I'm going to assume it is a Standard grade Model 12,.... 28 or 30 in. full choke barrel, no vented rib. This was the most common configuration.  Your serial # would indicate 1959 as the production year. \n\nThe term "excellent condition" doesn't mean a lot unless you are familiar with grading guns. My experience is that when the average person says a gun is in excellent condition it could mean anywhere from 80% to 98% condition, usually closer to 80 than to 98.\n\n80% condition...........$275\n90% .........................$325\n95% .........................$350\n98% .........................$500\n\nModel 12's are very collectible and if your gun is configured differently than what I've described, it could be much more valuable.

Bound's hubby here:\n\nCongratulations, you have a US Rifle Model 1917 Enfield, known as a P17, manufactured in Eddystone, Pennsylvania. The 1917 was manufactured in .30-06. \n\nPrior to US entry into World War I, the Eddystone plant was manufacturing the Model 1914 Enfield (a.k.a.: P14) chambered in .303 for the British. This is where Cabhammer is in error. When the U.S. entered the war, U.S. war needs surpassed the commercial ventures to supply Great Britain. As the US was entering WWI, as Cabhammer correctly stated, the US had an insufficient supply of M1903 rifles, manufactured by either Springfield or Rock Island, hence the modification of the P14 to be chambered in .30-06, which made it the P17 (for Pattern 17). \n\nThe 1917 Enfield differs substantially from the M1903 Springfield:\nFirst, the 1917 is bulkier and heavier.\nSecond, the 1917 had a rear sight mounted on the receiver bridge, not forward of the receiver ring.\nThird, the 1917 was a bit more difficult to fire rapidly, because the action cocked on opening, not closing like the Springfield, hence the Springfield is perceived to have a smoother action.\n\nThe Civilian Marksmanship Program had been selling its limited supply of 1917 Enfields for either $350 or $450 (I forget which), and recently sold out. The CMP does not anticipate receiving any other 1917s for resale. The same has happened with the M1903 Springfield, which sold for $450, and sold out this past August. While at Cabelas in Hamburg, Pa. 2 weeks ago, they had a "high serial numbered" Rock Island M1903 selling for $850. I think you could expect your 1917 to have a similar value, for someone wanting a 1917! (Note: Parts for the M1917 have not been as readily available as they have been for the M1903, so appearance and condition may not be as good as you will find on the Springfield's.)

None that I know of make direct comparisons/contrasts.\n\nI can help you out a lot more than TheWiseOne, as his answer contains many inaccuracies.\n\nContrary to what the WiseOne stated, the M1 Garand was adopted as the standard US Army infantry rifle in 1936 and was standard issue when we entered the war.  The USMC still had a predominance of '03 Springfields, as they didn't receive new equipment until after the Army.  I find it odd that the WiseOne denigrates the Springfield for being "obviously dated and had been used in World War I.".  That's funny, because the standard infantry rifle the Germans used during WWII, the K98k, was simply a newer, shorter version of the Gewehr 98, the Model 1898 Mauser rifle, developed before and used during WWI (the Springfield used the same action as the Mauser by the way).  Both were fine bolt-action weapons, but couldn't compare with the M1 because of their slow rate of fire (the US was the only army in WWII to have a semi-automatic rifle as it's standard infantry weapon).\n\nThe primary sub-machine gun of the US Army during WWII was the M1928A1, M1, and M1A1 versions of the Thompson sub-machine gun.  A fairly heavy weapon, accurate at short ranges, and it had a lot of stopping power due to the fact it was chambered for the .45ACP round.  From 1944 onwards it was slowly phased out and replaced by the M3 Grease Gun.  It was cheaper and far simpler to mass produce than the Thompson.  Contrary to what the WiseOne states, both used 30 round box magazines (although 20 round was available for the Thompson).  The German MP-40 (the famed Schmeisser, although Schmeisser had no part in it's design) was chambered for 9MM Parabellum.  It was lighter and had a slightly lower cyclic rate than the Thompson (but a bit higher than the M3).\n\nComparing the MP-44 and the BAR is like comparing apples and oranges.  The MP-44 is the ancestor of the modern assault rifle, and was used as such.  The BAR is analagous to the M249 SAW that the US Army currently uses.  The MP-44 was a good weapon, with decent accuracy and range, and a cyclic rate high enough to provide fairly heavy firepower.  Very useful in urban fighting.\n\nThe BAR was a great weapon, heavy, but provided very good, accurate firepower for platoons.\n\nI don't know what "tiny Walther pistols" WiseOne is speaking about.  The standard German sidearms of WWII were the Parabellum-Pistole (popularly known as the Luger) and the Walther P-38.  Both were chambered for the 9MM Parabellum round, and both were fairly accurate.  The P-38 was easier and cheaper to make, and more tolerant of various environmental conditions.  The M1911A1 Colt .45 was a fairly good pistol, not particularly accurate, but the .45 ACP round provided good stopping power, and it was fairly reliable.\n\nThe German MG-42 was an excellent weapon, the best of its' class during the war.  It was the basis for the postwar design of the US M-60 machine gun.  I don't know what the WiseOne is speaking of when he mentions "and other lamer machine guns" when speaking of the US.  The primary US light machine gun was the .30 Browning.  It's sustained fire rate wasn't as good as the MG-42, but nevertheless the air-cooled version was a more than competent, if not very good weapon.  The standard heavy machine gun of the US was the Browning M2 .50.  This was an excellent weapon, best in it's class, and is still in use today by many countries. The M2 was just as accurate as the MG-42, and had greater power and ranger. Then again, pretty much any weapon designed by John Browning turned out to be excellent.\n\nThis following statement is absolutely wrong:\n\n"American planes were better than German planes by the time we entered the war, as the RAF killed off many of their better planes."\n\nThe best American fighters of the war at the time of our entry were the P-40 and F4F.  Neither one was anywhere near as good as the
