Hmmm, maybe I shoulda kept that scope, it sure looks good on the OE!!
Loading for a ML is just like handloading, only one bullet at a time in the barrel!!
And you need to replicate each load every time you load it so it's consistent. Since you most likely won't be loading PRB, that's a couple less variables, patch thickness and ball size. Pick your bullet, then powder, work up in 5gr by volume increments pouring powder(if loose powder) into a measure and leveling it the same way each time, wiping the bore between shots...another variable, how you wipe. Most will use a damp patch, followed by a dry patch, then load and shoot again. Some will pop a cap after wiping, another variable. Whatever method you choose, just do it the same each time.
I would also recommend you check state rules for ML seasons to make sure the components and equipment you use are within their rules, some states are very restrictive on the ML seasons as far as firearms and components, and they may change at anytime, Idaho just made a lot of inlines illegal for primitive seasons.
Good shooting!!
