[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 133093, member: 2736"] Edge As one of the other guys said you know a hell of a lot more than I do about muzzle loaders but what I ment by compressed loads was when I tried duplex loading I was told to compress each powder as it was placed in the barrel.this helped to minimize mixing and finger nailing (allowing slower powder to get behind the faster priming powder charge. As this would cause different burn rates. It looks like you have gone to a lot of trouble with the sabots so I am not sure what you can do to improve over what you all ready have. I had trouble geting under 2moa @ 100 yrds so I switched to heavy lead bullets and barns x ( 620 gr sp fb 50cal & 500gr triple shocks for my 45cal) I know that they rainbow badly but will shoot 1 to 1.25 moa at 600 yrds with iron sites and retain lots of energy. Also I use the 450gr & 500gr triple shock in a 45/110 sharps loaded with 777 and it shoots under 1moa (.812 best so far) I am interested in what you come up with so please post the results. good luck J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
