I've been using a 32 cal muzzleloader to hunt squirrels for about 30 years now and have only used one weight charge to hunt and target shoot with. 20 grains of fffg under a .310 round ball. I think this was for a old Speers reloading manual that if I recall correctly went up to 30 grains fffg for 32 cal. 20 grains groups a large jagged hole at 20 yards with all 3 rifles I have but makes one heck of a crack in the woods. Shoot a squirrel in a holler and have to go to the next holler to find another one that wasn't scared to death. Any of you folks use lighter powder charges with go accuracy?
Just curious of what others are using before I get the itch and get out the ol smoke poles to start load testing.
Happy shooting Mike
