Less powder, more lead, shoots far, kills dead.
More powder, less lead, kicks hard, wide spread.
Just goes to prove that every barrel is different,,

well the .54 does, but the .50 likes it tight packed, or at least tighter. Usually three fair tamps.
The .54 likes it poured in, ball/patch psuhed down and as soon as you feel it stop, leave it be.
took me weeks to figure it out, then another guy there at the range told me to try it just seated on top of the powder, and it shot great!
wasen't real bad beforehand i guess, i mean 50 yards iron sights 3-5 inch group, no particular direction.
using the "loose load, 50 yards iron sight, as long as i have a good rest and use the set trigger, i can punch them close enough togeather to have multiple shots in one ragged hole.
at 100, usually 1-3 inch groups, 150 2-5 inch, might be better if i stuck a scope on, mainly just to see better.
