Hey folks,

I'm new to the site here and haven't been hunting with a muzzleloader too long, so it seems like I'm learning something new about this stuff all the time. I wanted to check to see what you all think about using 45-70 government sierra pro hunter bullets with black high pressure crushed rib sabots (harvester). The bullets are 300 grain .458 bullets and I would be using 2-50 grain pyrodex pellets. I probably didn't need the high pressure sabots, but thats all our local shop had. I was told by sierra that the bullet should expand down to just below 1200 fps. The rifle it would be used in isa Knight Shadow. Thanks for the input.
