[QUOTE="Highvoltage, post: 1989356, member: 109082"] Try some blackhorn powder and use patience. Blackhorn gives higher muzzle velocities than normal pyrodex. Call your muzzleloader manufacture and see what they recommend. I believe I’m using the 250 sst if I remember correctly. You can dial your load in very similar to working a load with a rifle because your measuring your powder charge. Best part is the blackhorn doesn’t need to be cleaned as often as pyrodex so you can run through a whole load development without cleaning. 12” at 300 is very feasible with a decent scope and today’s technology. I did this a few years back to go to ohio and without much work I was 2-2.5” at 200 yds. I bet with another day trip to the range I may have been able to shrink that even more. I use a 2-7 leupold.
