is there any tips advice or anything else anyone one could tell me about shooting this gun. right now i'm shooting .54 powerbelt sabots(295grain) with 110 grains of powder.
Check out the black powder forum powerbelts are a poor choice of bullets when you use over 80 grains of powder. They de fragment when they get pushed by heavy charges causing a lot of wounded & lost deer.
