Hey guys---It has been a while but it is good to be back here!

I have sent a guy over who just bought a Kodiak Double ML and is in need of regulating it and want to use it for PIG hunting. Daryl, I know you are "the man" when it comes to this stuff, so I just wanted to give you a heads up when the "regulating a Kodiak ML double" questions start coming in from a new member...

From my experience I found that to get a black powder double to shoot where I aim it for hunting, I first needed to get the powder weight up and the right ball first, at least up to a level that would be appropriate for the game. I also know that lowering the powder amount to get the barrels to uncross--if it gets below the level for a hard hitting big game load---it makes NO SENSE at all because then you end up with a load where the balls may hit to point of aim but they lack the punch to give you the confidence to use them. Daryl----for a Kodiak Muzzleloader, lets say 50 caliber, what do you think is a starting vicinity of black powder amount for something like a pig hunt. And do you aslo recommend a "hardened" round ball or a regular lead? OR do you think a minnie might be in order?
