Question for Muzzleloading Experts

I probably would have stayed using pellets, IF I could  consistently get accuracy and I could shoot more than 2 or 3 shots without cleaning my barrel. I love BH for the reason, literally can shoot 25 shots without cleaning in between and I had far better accuracy, CONSISTENTLY. Though, many of my buddies NEVER had problems w pellets. Good luck this season 👍.

 

Yes, I agree. Less fouling is definitely a big benefit of BH. I saw that at the range sighting in. But once you are all set, in hunting situations, you rarely need more than one shot. Ease of reloading is a big plus with pellets. I used Pyrodex, the dirtiest of the bunch. But that one time convenience at the range does not outweigh the benefits of pellets. Easier to load and no measuring. I wouldn't want to be reloading with loose powder on a windy day after shooting a big buck and having to possibly make a follow up shot. It's a personal choice for everyone. What's best is a subjective opinion. Always value your input!
