Anyone out there have any experience deer hunting with a Kentucky rifle in .45? I cant seem to get mine dialed in. What bullets/powder/patches work for you?
I've been using a .440 ball with .010 patches. I just got some .018 patches I'll try out this weekend.

I use FFF American Pioneer synthetic powder and it’s WAY better than real black powder. So much easier to clean. I’m shooting a .50 but should be fine in .45 as well.
