    Hello Everybody

    Im new to the sport but even though I was under alot of pressure to go inline I still went sidelock. Traditional and round ball forever.That to me is the whole point of muzzleloading.If I want to hunt with a high power single shot I will use my 30-06. :redthumb:

    58. cal power

    How come after 54. cal power and velocity begin to drop off.You would think that a 58. cal would be more powerful than a 54. but according to the tc manuel power and velocity begin to drop off after 54. cal why is that Im new to the sport and feel stupid for asking.
