So i achieved 3 holes touching at 100yards with 100gr volume of black horn 209 out of my cva optima v2 stainless thumbhole and wanted to test a higher charge but ended up shooting 2 deer with the Marlin so never messed with the muzzleloader again. I was invited to do doe control this weekend but its -15 tonight and -6 tomorrow and i really don't feel like shooting in those conditions.
Sooo... I am shooting .452 300gr XTP with that charge of blackhorn which their data puts me at 1800fps. You guys think this is enough for that bullet to kill a deer at say 100yards?
