T/C Black Diamond XR .50 caliber... 120 grains of Goex 3f loose powder with T/C Shockwave 250 grains
Knight Wolverine II .50 caliber... 100 grains Goex 3f 250 grain Barnes Expander
.58 caliber T/C Renegade.. 100 grains Goex 2f patched 283 grain.570 roundball
.62 caliber T/C Renegade.. 85 grains Goex 2f patched 324 grain .600 roundball
I have a lot of other rifles and other loads but those are the main four that I intend to hunt with for the early season. For the late season I will be using different flintlocks in .54 & .50 calibers..
