IMHO, Lil Gun is a poor choice for lead bullets. It burns very hot...

IMR4227 is much more lead friendly. Lyman 50th manual has loads for two lead bullets.

Trail boss with a straight walled case & lead boolits, almost always works out to a 90% capacity loading. Meaning you don't want it compressed, but just shy will be your charge.
