    Red face Clump or Granular???
    I have a problem and I know you guys have some answers.
    I want to go from pellets to powder because I hear that powder is more accurate? I get average groups with pellets but there has to be a better answer??? Is there a better answer?

    When muzzleloading you are handloading each shot for your weapon...Powder allows you to tweak your powder charge and find the most accurate loading...Pellets don't, plus powder is cheaper...

    +1 to what nchawkeye said. Loose is the way to go as far as I'm concerned.
