    New Muzzleloader Shooter Hold Over Question

    Update: Filed down my front sight and it has fixed the problem. I’m dead on now at 50yds. It’s is hitting right where I aim currently at 50yds so I am leaving it alone for now. I may in the near future get it a couple inches high at 50yds. I appreciate all the help and input on this.

    Starting charge and Hunting Charge

    I don’t know the twist rate of my rifle. If you can share how I can check that it would be appreciated. Is it ok to use a brush to clear the bore or should I not do that? Thank you.
