Load Data for Armi Sport 1853 Enfield

Greetings, Just purchased an Armi Sport 1853 Enfield. My first muzzle loader. I was looking for load data. I was planning on shooting a 510gr. bullet with Hodgdon Triple Seven (2F) powder. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Joe P.

Keep the heavy bullet and start experimenting w/ 60 gr 2F and work your way down. Mine P53 Armi-Sport shot about 6" high and IIRC to the right. A little sight work and experimentation w/ the load... you can have a good shooter. The NSSA site might be your best bet www.n-ssa.org as I know many shooters prefer to use a lighter load of approx 40 gr of 3F and attain some outstanding groups ...

Thanks for the fast feedback. Is the 60gr. measured by weight or by volume? From what I have read I understand it to be by volume, but I want to make sure. Sorry for what I believe to be muzzle loading 101 question. To used to reloading for Garands and other service rifles....... Thanks, Joe P.
