Default RE: Light 45-70 loads?

Thanks, what I've learned so far is fillers are a no-no, full weight lead casts are a must and the faster burning powders are desireable.

Questions I've come across. One guy said, if I understood him correctly, that he seats the roundballs all the way down on the powder. Other than not feeding through anything well, I can't think of why this wouldn't work...can you? Second guy talked about putting silicone grease into hollow points, is this just childish or what? I know the theory is the same as the polymer tipped varmint bullets but...eh?
