Hey guys I was going to sight in my muzzleloader today. I am going to start with 80grns of 777 with a 240grn xtp. now my ? is should I find a powder charge that groups well before I adjust my scope?
I agree totally with what Sabotloader suggested, though I would also do this. With each grouping I would seek to get the center of the next grouping in the horizontal center of the target. I wouldn't worry about elevation adjustment until I settled on the charge. Usually, change in chargeis going to lift or lower POI and not affect the left/right nature of the POI.
