Thats an excellent rifle you have there Turkey Addict. A friend of mine shoots one of them and the groups he gets is fantastic. He shoot Pyrodex and a big conical out of it because of the 1-32 twist. I forget what he said his powder charge was but if it were me I would start at 70 grains and work up from there. I am sure it will come in real fast. Good Luck deer hunting....
