Let me here what your go to setup is for Muzzle loading. I have a Muzzy Mule Deer tag and I would like to know what works for everyone. All my muzzleloader experience is back east with whitetails under 100 yards.
So I am going to see if I can get my CVA Accura V2 to be consistent out to 300 yards. I have been using .50 caliber, 270 gr. Powerbelt Platinum's, with 150gr. of IMR White Hot pellets. Was what CVA recommended and worked fine as far as I could tell for the whitetails and the close distance I was shooting. I'd shoot and they would die usually within 50 yards.
I have purchased some Blackhorn 209, some Barnes TMZ 290 grain bullets & Sabots, some Hornady SST 300 grain bullets and sabots, and some Powerbelt Aero-lite 300 grain bullets to see if a combo would work better than what I am shooting currently. I figured I would start with 110 grains of Blackhorn and each bullet to see what happens and then branch out from there for better possibilities.
Any reccomendations/info/first hand knowledge you all can provide would be great.
Thanks everyone! Good Luck hunting this year.
