Default New 12-Bore JAEGER FLINTLOCK Rifle

Well, I just finished up building a 12-bore Jaeger rifle. I am using .735" balls that weight 597.5 grains with a 0.15" T/C greased patch. I must now head to the range with file and hammer in hand to "zero" it. I would like to havea load that gives me +- 1350 FPS MV, and zero it to be +2" @ 50 yds, - 2 @ 100 yds,or close to these figures.

Anyone have a load recommendation for me?

Long Hammock barrel, Davis-Jaeger lock & trigger, Tiger Hunt premium cherry stock.

Thanks
