Quote History Quoted:
I'll say this , you will want to get a Range Rod , which is a heavy duty Ram Rod .
Not only does it make loading easier , but you can pull stuck balls out much more easily with the range rod with a big honking handle.
Make sure to get a Ball Screw with a centering collet ,and a patch screw , a cleaning jag .
I wouldnt start with 80 gr ,more like 60 .
Die Trying has probably worked up to the most accurate load in his rifle .
If you need any help let me know .
What is the other rifle ?

Yip, what he said, get you a nice tackle box and start adding to it, lol. Primers, powder, balls, patches, cleaning materials, spare parts , etc etc
Also, i agree with range rod, get a non wood one strictly for range, ive got probably a dozen rods and youll want to mark the rod where you know everything is seated properly (powder, patch and bullet)
Can see my mark on rod, if im seating ball, inknow its all the way bottomed out when mark reaches crown of barrel
Attached FileYea load been worked up, when i let other ppl try it, i go down to 40-50gr
My long gun, fun to shoot but cant hit much, lol
