    54 deer hunter kit target pics

    My plinking load for my 54 is 60gr of 2f and I sure wouldn't pass up a deer with that load. I do find however that 110gr 2f is what I use for elk and it is more accurate than the 60gr. load. Your shooting looks fine,good luck. Frank

    What Powder to use in a stainless steel Barrel?

    Hi Bill, I just went thru the same thing with my GPR. First thing I can tell you is that I quit using anything but Holy Black Powder about a year ago.
