As an aside. My particular choice of 60 grains was only to saddle equivalent energies with the .54 PRBat 40 yards. .54 roundball is a proven killer of deer, which inspite of its relatively low sectional density, (or terminal sectional density if it matters to you), doesn't have any problem penetrating deer deeply or causing traumatic swiftly killing wounds. 60 grains merely equivicated the impact energies at 40 yards.

So yes, one can use more than 60 grains as far as I am concerned.

Even so, 60 grains is just fine out to 100 yards with the wind cooperating, a good rest, and a rifle which shoots them accurately with this charge. My sidekick shot them with 65 grains into sub 1.5 in. groups in windy conditions at 50 yards using open sights. How many times have people asked, "What would be a good load for my daughter, I need a good load with acceptable recoil for a 12 year old, a load good to 70 or 80 yards"?

Brand bashing and blaming a projectile forpoorly placed shots helps no one. All it does is move where people spend their money. It does so by fallaciously programming unreasonable fears into the minds of people who deserve better than to be disrespected like that.
