Round ball & smooth bore

casted up some round balls a few weeks back for my Trade musket.....got to shoot some today. I tried a few different ways to load them: loaded some with a patch on top of powder charge, loaded a few others with the wads that I use for shot. Didn't see much of an appreciable difference. Is there any "standard" way of loading a smooth bore for accuracy, or do you just take what they give? (If thats the case, then I'm in trouble!....gun shoots way low at 25 yards )
