    OK, Update on the 488gr cast bullets, tried some with 3031, 35.5gr and 40gr, at 100m not good , five shots and no holes in the target. All were going over the top and when I did get some on they were all over the place, so no target. Next batch was loaded with 65gr 2f Swiss and shot at 50m , a lot better, could see where they where going and liked the black powder better. Looks like I`ll be trying the black at 100m to see if I can get a group of some sort, and the barrel is getting a good polish.
