Matt, I have not tried the sky chief load, but I have heard about it. Are you putting a oil soaked fiber wad or wool wad on top? I guess I could try both. I will pattern it soon, I can stop thinking about when I can shoot it again.
I do like shooting these muzzleloaders. It fun to get them dialed in and be able to use them effectively. I like how it slows things down too. On this flintlock the wood on the stock might have come from a tree that started grow in the 1600s, that's kind of neat and crazy at the same time.
I would love to get a few of us together for muzzleladers in the morning and hammer gun Parkers in the afternoon.
