TC Renegade help

[Dale Allen Raby]

If the only finsih loss was on the muzzle, just start shooting it. It'll be nice and black by the end of a few range sessions.

I just joined up here n following your Renegade troubles n shooting. I have a Renegade in a bad .54 cal thumper. I have round balls in .490, i also have the 300 gr REAL bullet. I also have Harvester red sabots n half dz. diff .45 cal bullets for them. I have only had mine for couple of weeks n bad weather has kept me from getting outside to start with mine. I will start with 50 gr load in both the 2F n 3F

You need .530 balls for a 54. .490 is fir a 50

My early .54 Renegade shoots great with .530 patched round balls, and it even shoots better with .54 Great Plains bullets but I can’t find them anymore.

I've mostly shot the TC Maxi-Balls I cast. I just started shooting RB in my .54. I buy Hornady balls at Sportsmans (until I get to casting when it warms up a bit!).

In Idaho the minimum caliber allowed is 50.

Yep, and I can tell you with 100% certainty that a .50 caliber Maxi Ball are lethal on elk. You are on the right track.
