                Army Cavalry
                ???

                EDIT: Just read the "Shot" part of the question. Oops. .45 shot has been around since WW2 so USAF is out.

                  Probably 4 grains Bullseye.

                  Note original question is about ratshot

                      A matter of terminology:
                      A branch of the US Armed Forces that Flew Airplanes.
                      Army and USAF will be considered correct.

                      Bullseye is the correct Powder.

                      The outstanding answers are:
                      The Date
                      Amount of Bullseye in Grains?
