My son has a Lyman Deerstalker lefthanded percussion in .50 cal. I bought it new for him a couple years ago. The best PRB load we've worked up has been between 50-65 gr. Triple7.
Nice shooting gun. He really likes it. Enjoy. :results:
 
I shoot 3f...40 gr at 25 yds, 50 gr at 50 yds, and 60 at 100 yds...works well for me...gun is a pleasure to shoot..Hank

50 grains and .490 PRB with .018 ticking.
