Description
Hodgdon Trail Boss® is designed specifically for low-velocity lead-bullet loads suitable for Cowboy Action shooting. It is a purpose-built option for handloaders looking for a powder matched to that application.
Trail Boss is primarily a pistol powder, while also offering some application in rifles. This makes it relevant for handloaders working with appropriate low-velocity lead-bullet loads across those platforms.
Built on new technology, Trail Boss provides very high loading density and good flow through powder measures. The formulation is also stable through severe temperature variation and is designed to provide additional safety to the handloader.
Trail Boss is made in Australia and is available in 9 oz. and 2 lb. containers. Consult current Hodgdon reloading data and follow all product-label directions before use.

Trailboss
I have missed this powder for so so long !!!! It is absolutely magic in my 30 blackout with a 7" barrel and something quite on the end !!!! There is nothing else I have ever found that is this good silence.

Great Powder
I haven't seen any Trail Boss powder for a long time. I'm delighted that it is available again. I love how it fills a case and is the perfect powder for blackpowder era cartridges.

Trail Boss powder
....this powder is the finest product for handloading any brass cartridge with cast, swaged or plated lead bullets used in competition, practice, plinking, metal (gong) and hunting.......also good with some jacketed bullets as well.......this is about the only smokeless powder that will reliably fill a large brass casing for consistent burning!!!......we need more!...More!...MORE!.....
