Last week i emailed the manufacturer Pedersoli, asking for information regarding my used kentucky rifle, since the rifle didnt come with a users manual or anything with recommendations. Within a day i received the following below:
We obtained the best target results loading 40 grs, of Swiss #2 black powder, round ball .445", made with our bullet mould USA 307-445, lube patch .010" - Muzzle Velocity 1380 Fps.
Our USA importer obtained good hunting results loading 70 grs. of FFg, .440" round ball and .010" patch - Muzzle velocity 1690 Fps. Also with conical bullet 245 grs. 75grs. of FFg - Muzzle velocity 1555 Fps.
Now i have just gone and purchased some FFg powder from a gun show, but the rest I am a bit hesitant on to buying the ball and patch because i dont know what im looking for nor where to go.
ive googled purchasing some ball ammo, and some sites come up, but nothing leaps out at me saying "hey, i match the description from the email." So i am confused like no other.
Id gladly appreciate any input, be it a favorite brand, or a favorite website to help me in my purchases.
Thanks
