Great Idea but wouldn't work the guns being all on different diets & configurations .I have been pondering this idea for sometime about creating some sort of central location on information for people's loads with various muzzleloaders. While every gun is different and exploration should be used to find that load your gun likes best, I think a compilation of accurate loads could serve as a good starting point for some. I know some less serious shooters will dump a pretty heavy amount of powder down their barrel and take it out hunting.
When I started shooting a lot and developing a load, I did searches on forums and saw guys being successful in terms of accuracy with similar loads. Usually the powder would vary 5-15 grains but the .015 patch was common between posts.
What're your thoughts on compiling a database for accounts of successful loads? I think it could be a fun project and may show some "preferences" on the different variables for production guns over the years.
