Ontario Hawken,

Welcome to the Forum; I see this is only your 4th post.

I use a .50 caliber smoothbore flinter Hawken for small game here in PA. I load 75 grains of 2F Goex, put down a T/C .50 caliber bore button and then a 75 grain VOLUME charge of #6 shot topped off by a .50 bore button. My Hawken holds a nice pattern out to 40 yards that takes squirrel and rabbits. Hope this helps.

Again, welcome to this site.

Adam
