If you are using the pellets 3-50gr pellets-Hornady used the tripple 7 in the omega and 3-50 gr pellets for the 250gr and 300gr L&L data. I use 3-50gr regular pyrodex pellets for the 300 gr L&L and got more Vel than what they did using the Tripple 7 pellets. Which is suppose to have more punch, but as in fps the Blk Powder guns do not gain like regular rifles like say a 26in in an encore like I shoot verses the Omega with a 28 in barrel. The Power belts were done with the CVA in a 28in barrel and 2-50gr pellet's for one chart and 3-50gr pellets for another chart for Ballastics using reg Pyrodex pellets. Just do not mix the 2 different brands of pellets. Clean the bore with T/C #13 and run a patch with Butter bore through it to keep it seasonsed and you will find it easy to get more shot's and easier to LOAD with less fouling. And if you use the Tripple 7 use the 209 PRIMERS, Winchester is the best and has one for Muzzle Loader's. Have any question's call them at T/C 1-603-332-2333
