I was wondering what some of you guys prefer for powder loads.

I use 115 grains of Pyrodex behind a 385 grain conical, and 55 grains with a patched round ball.  These seem to work pretty good...

Huh?

What's that?

Well, it say "50 Cal" on the forum title!  My T/C Hawken is a .50 caliber!

OK.  I'll go back where I belong...

Try 220 grains of 5010 and let us know how it works out.

218 gr 5010 650 api
Lets see you get these loads down the bore of your Hawken with the ram rod!
