I have a Thompson Centre 54 cal Hawken that I used primarily for moose hunting.
I use 90 grains of Pyrodex behind a 425 Great Plains bullet, and it seems to do an excellent job.
Up here in Canada sourcing 54 caliber bullets is frustrating to say the least, nobody up here stocks them and we are not able to import from the states.
One option is to make a mould and cast my own. I have a milling machine and lathe etc, just wondering if any one on the forum has done this and how did it turn out?
