Have question on how much powder any one else is using with Moose Mold 515-395 for a Shiloh Products 50 cal 1863. Using that mold and Charlie Hahn tubes I can get only 48-50 grains of 2F Goex in the tube. Is that close to what others are using?
Don't have any other 50 cal molds as yet, but I'd like to try heavier loads in the rifle.

I don’t have any particular experience with those tubes but I think they are for use by the NSSA target shooters and they use low powered loads. You may have to try loose powder or making your own cartridge tubes.
