Maybe a dumb question but I'm new to this ML thing so go easy.
I'm borrowing a muzzleloader this year for my first muzzleloader tag. I went and shot it for the first time today. The muzzleloader has been set up shooting .50 Cal - 245gr Powerbelt AeroTip bullets with Jim Shoeckey's Gold Black Powder Substitute Sticks (3ea 50gr sticks) with Winchester triple 7 209 primers.
The guy I'm borrowing from only has roughly enough bullets/powder/primers for another 8-10 shots and I'd like to keep shooting through this fall to get comfortable with it so I started looking for the components. Based on what I've been able to put together the Jim Shockey's Gold Black Powder sticks have been discontinued. Does anyone have a good recommendation on a substitute for this?
It also seems like based on my research that the 3ea 50gr sticks (150gr) are a little hot but since that's what he's been shooting through it I'm hesitant to change it.
