Bill, I use Goex in mine because it is just about the only thing I can get here. FFg seems to burn cleaner for me and gives about 100fps more than Fg for the same charge with a 2000gn conical. I haven't chronoed enough round balls to check the difference with then, just found a good load and stuck to it.

Yogi my 10 weighs a bit over 11lb (I've got the exact weight written down somewhere here) and has shallow 7 groove metford rifle for round balls. It shoots 700gn (1 5/8 ounce) balls at about 1300fps. There are 12 gauge slug loads hotter than that, so recoil is there but not heavy at all.

As to Cal's website, I LOVE all of those big bore pictures too, it gets my pulse going!
