Sold my .45 bbl. but--- I'd guess you are too hot on powder. 85 gr. or so T 7 behind a 220 gr. DC or 275 gr. Powerbelt, then work up.

What twist do you have in your barrel? When I first bought my .45 mzl barrel I found out that it had the 1:20 twist I sent it back to t/c and made them give me a 1:28 twist. The 45's like the heavier bullets. Check this website and read this article about 45's it was real informational to me I hope it is to you. http://www.chuckhawks.com/index2h.muzzleloader.htm
