I just started muzzleloading this year,but I do it because it is the most accurate weapon for my hunting area.I used it all regular season but never saw a deer.I use 150 grains of pyrodex and wonder why most guys only use 100 grains?According to ballistics at powerbelt,100 grains just doesn't seem to have hitting power at 200 yards.It hurts to shoot after a while but it seems very accurate at 100 yards.Next year I plan on doing alot of shooting with it to try different loads and bullets.I have an Omega and at 100 yards I can hit the 2 inch bull with 150 grains and a 245 grain powerbelt aerotip.
