Muzzleloader Question
Hello,
So my question is, when seating your bullet, how does seating pressure affect bullet velocity?
I recently bought a TC pro hunter 50 cal and I mounted a nikon muzzleloader scope 3x9. I'm shooting 120 grains of blackhorn 209 (measured by volume) shooting 250 grain hornady sst and at 100 yards I was shooting a 3" group. But, my group was consistently 1 inch low. I adjust the scope a couple times and still hit low.
I ran out of time so I couldn't play any longer but on my way home I was thinking maybe my seating pressure was inconsistent, getting lighter as I was shooting.
If I were to increase my seating pressure and was more consistent, would that potentially bring my group up to where I want it? And i plan on starting measure my power by weight to be more consistent as well.
Please let me know what you think. Thanks.
