I have been wanting to start hunting and shooting BP for some time but just recently picked up a T/C pro-hunter. I purchased a Bergara barrel for it in .50 cal. Anyone out there shooting an inline please give me your opinion on the better powders and bullets and 209 primers. I have some T/C shock waves and a small number of Barnes TMZ's. I picked up some 777 and pyrodex pellets and some 777, kleenbore and fusion 209 primers to start with.
Is there anything else I might need or want to try when I hit the range to shoot? What about swabbing between shots? What should I use to clean the barrel after wards? Should I use bore butter to store it or shoot sabots with it? I am excited to do this, I just want to do it safely and accurately.
Thanks.
