Not bad but try with different amounts of powder and see. There is an ideal spin rate RPM for every gun / projectile and it takes experimenting to fund it. That is what makes BP so much fun. You adjust spin be changing velocity. The amount of powder charge determines that. The "sweet spot" charge is different for every gun. Even 2 identical guns from the same manufacturer shooting the same projectile will have different "best charge".
Of course the caffeine charge can also come into play. It does with me.

That group is not bad at all for open sights. Some days you will shoot better and some days you will not talk about it. It does not hurt to play with powder charges, but that is basically the same (other then the patch lube) I shoot out of my Renegades.
That would be a dead deer in anyone's book. At that roundball will sure get the job done. Nice shooting!!!
