Recommended Bullet List

***We do not sell any bullets. This list is for information only.***

Rifling twist rate can be a very important factor when selecting a particular bullet. If your rifle has a twist rate one turn in thirty-two inches or faster, you should get good accuracy with all the bullets on our recommended list. If you rifle has a twist rate around on turn in fourty-eight, select a bullet that falls in the lighter half the list. If your target indicates tumbling bullets you will probably have to select a lighter bullets. If you shoot good groups at fifty yards, then, assume you have a good sight picture and the ability to shoot well at greater distances, groups go bad at one hundred yards, try a lighter bullet. There are exceptions to these indecations. Occasionally we shoot a slow twist (one turn in forty-eight inches) rifle that shoots very well with virtually all the recommended bullets, this seems more evident in the large diameter bullets. You may have a fast twistrifle (one turn in thirty-two inches or faster) that won't shoot some heavier bullets well, although this occurence is rare. it may be the rifle simply does not like the particular bullet and or bullet/powder selection. Muzzleloading rifles can be very individualistic, only experimentation with your rifle and various bullet/load combinations will determine what you and your rifle like best.

These recommendations are intended for reference only. However, they are based on field experience, comparative testing and admittedly a little subjectivity.
