buckeyeshooterI have the same muzzleloader. The Remington is a fast twist and acts squirrley with some loads. I use Barnes sabots in 275 grains with a charge of 2 pyrodex pellets. I have changed the ignition system to use the shotgun primers (Federal's are what I use). The primer upgrade kit is available from Midway or Remington.
Accuracy in my gun runs less that 1 inch groups at 100 yards.
