Uberti told me their max load for the Dragoon was 25 grns though. Thought it odd that they claim it's made of better steel, yet reduce the max load. When I asked them about it they ignored me.
They're just being conservative for safety. I used to use 35 gr in my 1860's, but that was with real BP. You use T7. I'd use less of that.
