I agree with Gimp.
With my flintlock I chose 3F powder and the bullet was round soft lead. I got it going at 1800 feet per second and can shoot three inch groups at 100. These were my premeditated standards - when I achieved them I accepted them. It took three shots. (It's a flintlock. That took an afternoon.)
A Russian taught me a saying once: "Perfection is the enemy of good enough."
