I would not go over the recommended 120 grains. Some are going way over, then don't know why their gun blows up. They have the potential of a bomb blowing up in their hands. If you need to go faster than 2000 fps, get a center fire. Muzzle loaders are supposed to be for short range. If we start shooting deer out to 300 yds, pretty soon we won't have a special season.
I see....so you don't have scopes on any of your MLs? If you need a scope, get a centerfire. People keep putting scopes on MLs pretty soon we won't have a special season.
Point is, you are no one to claim your way is the only way. Nobody comes here to be told what to do.
For some of us, MLing is THE way to hunt....we don't just do it for special seasons.
