777 pellets
300 grain Shockwave bonded
musket caps

I have tried 2 and 3 50 grain pellets. My gun shot much better with the full 3 pellets.

Most people seem to like the loose powder better.

90 grains of 777 loose. And switched this year to Powerbelt 295 grain Jacketed hollow points. The bore on my Bighorn is too tight for most sabots.
Switched to the Powerbelt and am very happy with them.
