Re: New Muzzle loader

I don't know anyone that can see a thumb tack at 100yds. At least not with the naked eye. I have read Mr Mathews book many years ago and it was informative. I am going to start with a wax cookie than My secret formula BP bullet lube (60%Bees wax 20% Vasoline and20% peanut oil) and top that with a waxed cardboard wad. We will see where that leads me. These bullets fit the bore snugly so some form of lube may be needed to get it down the bore. I also have some felt wads made up to try. A hard card wad will go down the bore first followed buy a lubed felt wad (moose milk) and then the bullet. Recommendations are to use no compression and 70grs 3F powder. Should be exciting.Now if the weather would just cool down at least into the mid 80s. These temps around here are starting to suck.
