BTW i wanted to make something clear after a few PMs.
This gun is an approved SMOKELESS muzzleloader. You should NEVER use this powder or ANY smokeless in a non approved gun. And IMO you shouldn't even consider a SML if you are not comfortable with smokeless reloading either.
I thought these bullets would make an interesting topic since the FTX is a cheap pointy bullet and the 260gr PT Gold since it has been a popular bullet lately. I was interested in how far the PT could be pushed and still get good accuracy. I think its safe to assume it can shoot well at nearly any speed using subs. Performance on game will be another thread if i get the chance.
