has anyone on here ever used cream of wheat between there powder and ball on a traditional muzzleloader. dont ask me why, but a place where i worked had a muzzleloading club. I was talking to one of the older guys in it and he told me it would tighten the groups on my muzzleloader and i tried it, and it worked. just curious if anyone on here has ever experimented with it. if your wondering what i shot. it was a 90 grain charge of 2f goex and 30 grains of cream of wheat. (it did kick a little more) Dem
Dem, the only time I use Cream of Wheat is when I'm loading the Rem 1856 BP .44 Mag revolver. I use it to keep the bullet even with the cylinder. NO bullet jumping into the barrel.
Powder, Wad, Premeasured amount of
Cream Of Wheat and
ball. I also spread Bore Butter over the Balls and scrape off even over the balls with a popsicle stick.
