Hey guys i am wondering, you guys that shoot MOD 1842,s 69 cal. and other 69 cal. smooth bores, what is the powder brand that you use and grade,? 1fg, 2fg, 3fg, or 1 1/2 fg.? that you shoot in competition and how many grains. with a patched or bare ball? in my 69 cal. smooth bore i shoot a .680 RB. with either 60 grs of 1fg. and a 10 ths. spit patch, or 80 grains of 1 1/2 grade, with a .680 RB. bare on the powder. now before you jump all over me, i am not a SKIRMISH COMPETITION SHOOTER. i have health issues that prohibit me from standing no longer than 5 minutes. i shoot off the bench at my club. i use GOEX brand or SCHUTZEN, brand. and i have a lot of fun doing it.
