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 is one of my favorite powders. If I had to pick just one powder to use it would be Trailboss.

Trail Boss powder
I love this powder for my 308 subsonic loads. It is bulky and fills the case more than most powders when trying to get a subsonic load. Hope to see it again soon.

Trail Boss powder.
I have used this powder in 9mm , .357, 44mag. 45acp, 45 colt it is very consistent. It’s nothing but fun for low presser low velocity loads. You can also load it up for a little more snap. The only problem is getting this powder. It melters well and is impossible to double charge.

Trailboss powder
I absolutely love this powder for reduced loads and easy shooting with cast bullets in 38 Special and 30-30 Winchester with cast,gas checked bullets! The cast bullets in the 30-30 probably don't even need the gas checks but I use them for other loads also. I've loaded hundreds of rounds with Trailboss and will always keep some around from now on! I used these loads to teach my grandson to shoot the 38 and 30-30 with no recoil and he loves it! This stuff should be on everyone's reloading bench!!
