Thanks Flintlock! I will get some 3F and try it. I have a shop that has real black powder.I could try sheep fat but would deer fat be as good? I will use up my TC1000 and use sheep ,. I got my new Green Mountain 50 cal. barrel 1/66" twist . I gave it a try and shot one group after I sighted in. It was about 2" except one flyer on a 5 shot group. I am heading back out now. I will have more questions about the patches. At 60gr Old Eyensford it tore the patches and I think that is bad. I went down to 50 gr. and the patches didn't tear. This is when the groups improved quite a bit.
