RE: Tightening Groups with Open Sights
Southpaw, knowing nothing about muzzleloading, I used the same tactics I used handloading formy .308. Bought a CVA Buckhorn last winter, tried Pyrodex 1st and Powerbelt Aerotips. The 348 grain dropped real fast, the 245 was all over the place, but with the 295 grain aerotips and 100 grains of pyrodex, I'm consistently getting 3" or less groups at 100 yards. Even can get a consistent 8" group at 200 yards. Open sights of course, can't hunt ml elk here in Colorado with a scope. MyCVA has a 1 in 28" twist, so it seems to like those powerbelts. Have yet to try anything else bullet wise. Drew my first ml tag today and really looking forward to calling one in so I can try my hand!
