Always good to compare if you have the time and the finances to do so. Try different powder, charges, bullets even lubes. But caution: only change one thing at a time so you know what improves accuracy or makes it worse. Also keep a log to record your findings. Its good for future reference too. If you want to try full bore conical bullets you can try with and without a felt under wad (between the bullet and powder.)
To me that's the fun in muzzleloader shooting. Its rare that you own 2 that shoot the same load the best.
