Went to my 1st black powder shooting yesterday with my friend who is on the USA black Powder shooting team. Carried 1 1858 44 cal and a 1851 navy 44 cal. My load was 20grains of FFFG Goesx then a lubercaed wad then then ball. Shooting at 25 yards my shots were everywhere. hit targret several tmes but not any groups. My friend said 20gr was good wad ok but needed to add corn meal to bring ball to top and then lube.
Do any of yall shoot like this. He was constanly hitting black at 25 yards.
