72 cal. Swamp hunter
Hi, im getting into blackpowder guns and im in love with my navy arms 12 gauge SxS muzzleloader.
I want to develop a good slug load for deer and have a few questions about what kind of slugs can be shot safely form the gun such as flatbase conical slugs or even 72 caliber lead airgun pellets
also what is the heaviest lead load you know of safely being used in a 12 gauge muzzleloader im only asking because im finding some crazy heavy 72 caliber lead projectiles up to 4 ounces and if a 1000grain lead projectile can be sent with enough speed and without destroying the gun that would be cost convenient for me
