Default RE: new to muzzleloading, a couple of questions?



My Black Diamond XR is scoped. This was off shooting sticks at 100 yards give or take a yard. It was during deer season and I was going to head into the thickets to try and get a deer. So I wanted to change to a large conical. The hole on the far right (the smaller one) was from a 375 grain Buffalo Bullet SSB all lead spitzer bullet which the rifle was loaded with from hunting fields all morning. They also shoot excellent out of the rifle with 100 grains of Goex.

I did not swab at all during this shooting. The 85 grains of Goex 3f was used because I hunt with Goex 3f. I also shoot TripleSe7en 2f with great results out of the rifle. I was using Winchester W209 primers. Also it is the best I have ever done off shooting sticks with the No Excuse Conicals, but they do shoot well and are legal as far as being under the 1" rule. I think they measured 7/8ths.
