How effective are these traditional muzzleloading bullets? | Hawken 50 Yard Penetration Test

Learn more at ilovemuzzleloading.com Today we’re back at the Yazel Shooting Complex, a safe and remote location, for some traditional muzzleloader projectile/bullet testing. This test will be conducted at 50 yards with my Traditions St. Louis Hawken. The Traditions St. Louis Hawken has a 50 caliber 1:48 twist barrel and operates using a percussion lock and a no. 11 percussion cap. I’m using this rifle in this test because 50 caliber muzzleloaders are the most common muzzleloader on the market, and there are a wide variety of off the shelf, non custom, projectiles available for them. Get your own "I Love Muzzleloading" Hat here - https://bit.ly/MuzzleloadingHats We’ll be testing 4 projectiles in this test .495 roundball, 184 grains Hornady PA Conical, 250 grains T/C Maxi Hunter, 275 grains Hornady Great Plains Bullet, 385 Each of these projectiles is consdered a “Traditional” projectile by many state hunting rules. They are all lead projectiles with no sabot, plastic, or jacket and their designs date back to the mid to late 19th century at the latest. For powder in this test, I’m shooting each shot with 80 grains of Swiss 3F blackpowder measured by volume. Volume is the standard means to measure traditional “real” blackpowder in the field. Many shooters will use 2F blackpowder in their 50 caliber muzzleloaders, but by using this 3F Swiss brand blackpowder, we should be able to get optimum speed out of this rifle. The target for this test will be a line of water filled 1 gallon milk jugs. These jugs do not approximate the flesh of a deer or elk in a consistent 1:1 fashion but they do give us an idea of how these bullets will expand under pressure, and just how much each bullet can push through before being stopped. Special thanks to [Muzzle-Loaders.com](http://Muzzle-Loaders.com) for sending these conical bullets for me to test on the range. I’m not being compensated for this video, but I do appreciate the help from Muzzle-Loaders.com because the costs of these bullets certainly add up over time.
