Sometimes I shoot at a range and this year there will be 200 & 300 yard competition for musket. I have an Armisport Model 1855 which is shooting very well at 100 yards where I normally go. I have been shooting one of Lyman's Old Style Minies (about 480 grains) and it has grouped very nice. I'm going to experiment with another Lyman minie at 530 grains and see how that works. I was wondering if anyone has shot at these distances and what kind of powder load was used. For example, GOEX 3F 50 grains at 200 yards using a 560 grain Gardner. Was the same type and amount of powder used for both distances? Or was more powder required to shoot at 300 yards?
Thanks for the help,
Buck
