Peace and good hunting to all,

New to muzzle,

Using the pyrodex pellets, should I use 2 or 3 to start out?

I shot 100 grains also, see what they suggest you use, or shot a few different loads and depends on the grain of your bullet

Thanks guys,

I think I will go with the two pellets, that's what the manual recommends for the 50 bore.

And primarily because of my new toy, I don't want to break it.

Back in the 60's that old I am, when I had my cork gun for christmas, I broke it.
Really upsets me...

If you guys go to range to do a shoot-out or fine tune "the equipment" can you please give me an invite.

Thanks Pakman,

About my avatar, you don't think his action is little to the left?

I am sensing that, if someone says something I will do the right thing.

But check this guy rugman avatar, maybe why my avatar is acting like that.
