Neophyte Question About Powder
I recently was given my first blackpowder rifle as a birthday gift, a Traditions Tracker 209. Seems like a great gun and am having fun with it.
Being a beginner, I have a few questions about powder charges.
How does more or less powder effect accuracy? Aside from consistency, what are the advantages and disadvantages of smaller or larger loads?
I will be using the rifle for whitetails in West Virginia. What would some of you suggest as a powder and bullet weight combination?
I appreciate any input...Thanks!
