cardboard wads, is it worth it?
Hi everyone from this side of the earth,
Will the accuracy improve on my Ardesa Deerstalker if I use cardboard wads with the patched .490 roundball, 177gr?
I'm printing a matchbox sized group at 50meters with 55gr Sannadex pistol-powder, I guess it something equivelant to your FFFg blackpowder.
I started using the pistol-grain powders when the rifle-grain got scarce, my nearset dealer are about 3 hours drive away and I only visit them 2-3 times a year.
I hear a lot of the guys are using wads or is it intended for conicals?
My rifle is the .50cal silwer-coloured Deerhunter with sintetic stock, 24" long with a 1:48 twist.
Appreciate any comments or help
