Default RE: How do you know how much powder to use

iused to use 130-150 grains of Pyrodex RS or three 50 grain pellets when hunting deer and hogs: Found that such heavy loads are not needed, even for shots at 150 yards. My favorite small game load uses a 240 grainXTP and 70 grains of Pyrodex RS. Whilehunting rabbits and squirrels i have killed severalhogs with that load-bang flops all.
