Sighting in muzzleloader with Hornady 385 bullets

[Turkey4]

Went out today to the range to sight in my tradition vortex Northwest ultralight Magnum, was trying Hornady 385 for the first time shop pretty well one and a half inch group at 50 yards. With a sightmark 1x24 scope

What powder and load? I know all of my Whites do better than that. I also hate the crappy white lube on the Great Plains, and clean them and replace with TC Bore Butter with the Natural Lube 1000. Just grease them back up, and put in the same plastic box.

90 grains up triple 7 fffg and I measured it the way the manufacturer said to reduced it bike 25% which came to 67.5 Gr that equals 90 grain

Throw the 777 out and buy some Blackhorn 209. If it's legal where you are hunting, get a bigger scope. All my CVA's average three shot 1" groups at 100 yards. Yours should be doing much better. It does take time to find out what a new muzzy likes and get it dialed in. Good luck.
