35 grains is a fine load in my .36.

20 grains in a .36 TC Seneca and 40 grains in my 42" barreled flintlock (this one takes a .360 ball).

3f or 2f would be best sorry i forgot to ask
barrel is 39" long 15/16 across the flats
i use 3f in the pan on on my flinters most of the time and 2f and 1f as my main charge depending on the bore

My .36 is the result of a Track of the Wolf kit I put together. The 42", straight, Green Mt. barrel makes it a bit front heavy, but it is a shooter.

This rifle seems to like 30 grains of FFFg Goex, a .015 patch. and a .350 round ball. It is my squirrel rifle in name only since it has only "killed" paper thus far. :idunno:

3f Goex in my .36s.
