i got a bunch of pellets yesterday so i am going to start with Pyrodex pellets first and see how it does. Trying to avoid the crud ring.

Got my white hots but UPS was so rough with the package that theres a ton of powder and huge chunks broken off the pellets! Im P'd off to say the least. I am going to run them through the chronograph and see what kind of jump shows up.

I would not encorage breaking the law but I wonder how a game warden checks out a loaded muzzleloader and a couple of speed loaders for what powder is what. This sure sounds like overkill to me.
