If you're saying a true trade musket, as being unrifled, than you're getting the results it is supposed to give...

You might try a stronger load of powder, maybe 105+ gr, to give you more height...

but if you're going for deer, my suggestion is take it back to Cabelas and get something like a Lyman Trade Rifle (primitive) or an in-line rifle...

I've been shooting mine with just a patched ball--greased leather or denim--and beyond 50 yds I won't trust it to kill anything...

Sorry
