Once again I feel I should preface my question with the fact that I'm new to muzzleloading so please excuse me if it's an ignorant question.

I did some experimenting today with my new TC Triumph. Shot Speer Gold Dots, 250gr, .452", along with Harvester 50/45 crushed rib sabots and Triple7 FFFG loose powder.

Started out at 100grains of powder; it shot pretty well. Went to 110gr, then 120gr, andmy groups began to open up a little more. Then tried105 and 95 grains before going back to 100 grains again. It seemed with this combination 100grains seemed to give the best accuracy.

Now, to my point. My TC powder measure only went up to 125grso I was a little unsure about continuing to try loadsabove 120gr. Should I have? Is it possible to find anotherhotter load that produces good accuracy with the same components?
